Mechanical optimization of virgin and recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate) biocomposites with sustainable biocarbon through a factorial design

A statistical approach was taken to evaluate the effect of using recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate) (RPET), sustainable biocarbon and a chain extender on the performance of impact-modified PET biocomposites. Through a full factorial design, the extrusion-injection molded samples were tested for t...
