EFFECT OF TRIMETHYLOLPROPANE TRIACRYLATE (TMPTA) ON THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF PALM FIBER EMPTY FRUIT BUNCH AND CELLULOSE FIBER BIOCOMPOSITE

EFFECT OF TRIMETHYLOLPROPANE TRIACRYLATE (TMPTA) ON THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF PALM FIBER EMPTY FRUIT BUNCH AND CELLULOSE FIBER BIOCOMPOSITE

The effect of trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA) as a coupling agent, on the mechanical and morphological properties of the PP-cellulose (derived from oil palm empty fruit bunch fiber) and PP-oil palm empty fruit bunch fiber (EFBF) biocomposites has been studied. The ratio of PP:cellulose and PP...
