Effects of Surface Modification on the Mechanical Properties of Flax/β-Polypropylene Composites

Effects of Surface Modification on the Mechanical Properties of Flax/β-Polypropylene Composites

The effects of surface treatment of flax fibers featuring vinyltrimethoxy silane (VTMO) and maleic anhydride-polypropylene (MAPP) on the mechanical properties of flax/PP composites were investigated. α-polypropylene (α-PP) and β-polypropylene (β-PP) were used as matrices for measuring the mechanical...
