Woven hybrid composites: Water absorption and thickness swelling behaviors
Oil palm empty fruit bunches (EFB)/woven jute fibres (Jw) reinforced epoxy hybrid composites were prepared by hand lay-up technique by keeping the EFB/ woven jute fibre weight ratios constant, i.e. 4:1. By combining oil palm EFB and woven jute fibre, it is possible to take advantage of both fibres while at the same time suppressing their less desirable

Ten experimental diets were formulated to meet the 40% crude protein requirement of the African mudcatfish, Clarias gariepinus . In six of the diets fishmeal served as the main protein source while in the remaining four diets fishmeal was supplemented with either GNC or soybean cake to make isonitrogenous diets.
