Physical properties of short pineapple leaf fibre (PALF) reinforced high impact polystyrene (HIPS) composites

The aim of this study to investigate the physical properties of short pineapple leaf fibre (SPALF) reinforced high impact polystyrene (HIPS) composites. Three different sizes of the fibre were used in this study which was 10-40mesh, 40-60mesh and 60-80mesh. A five different fibre contents were used...
