Influence of Fiber Coating and Polymer Modification on Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Bast/Basalt Reinforced Polypropylene Hybrid Composites
Natural fibers, such as kenaf, hemp, and flax, also known as bast fibers, offer several benefits such as low density, carbon dioxide neutrality, and less dependence on petroleum sources. Their function as reinforcement in polymer composites offers a great potential to replace a segment of the glass...
