Experimental and micromechanical modelling of randomly oriented zalacca fibre/low-density polyethylene composites fabricated by hot-pressing method

This study aims to investigate the effect of the volumefraction of zalacca fibres on the tensile strength and modulus of the LDPE-ZF composites both experimentally and analytically. The tensile tests were carried out on the randomly oriented LDPE-ZF composites manufactured by hot-pressing method. Hi...
