Hybridization effect of coir fiber on physico-mechanical properties of polyethylene-banana/coir fiber hybrid composites

open access: yesScience and Engineering of Composite Materials, 2016
AbstractIn this paper, an attempt has been made to investigate the effect of coir fiber addition along with the banana fiber in low-density polyethylene (LDPE) to develop cost-effective and high-performance composite material. The composite samples were prepared at fixed fiber content (25 wt%) and with varying relative weight fraction of banana and ...
