Studies on mechanical properties of thermoplastic composites prepared from flax-polypropylene needle punched nonwovens
Natural fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites using flax and polypropylene were prepared using compression molding process. Needle punched nonwovens were used as preforms for preparing the composites. Three variables namely fiber weight proportion, areal weight of the mat, and needling density w...
