Effect of surface treatment on the mechanical properties of sugar palm/glass fiber-reinforced thermoplastic polyurethane hybrid composites

Effects of various surface modifications were evaluated relative to the mechanical properties of sugar palm fiber/glass fiber (SPF/GF) reinforced thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) hybrid composites. The 6 wt.% alkaline, 2 wt.% silane, and combined 6 wt.% alkaline-2 wt.% silane treatment of SPF were c...
