Effects of the liquid natural rubber (LNR) on mechanical properties and microstructure of epoxy/silica/kenaf hybrid composite for potential automotive applications

The effects of rubber toughened epoxy/silica/kenaf composites on mechanical properties and microstructure were investigated. In this study, a combination of silica, liquid rubber, and epoxy was used to toughen epoxy/kenaf composite for potential automotive applications. The composites with various l...
