TENSILE AND HARDNESS PROPERTIES OF KENAF-PP/PLA COMPOSITE FILLED NANOCLAY

Different amount of nanoclay will be added to the binder of Kenaf fiber composite material in order to investigate the effect of nanoclay loading in the conventional polymer based composite material. The samples were prepared by using the internal mixing technique with cons...
