The Effects of Modifying Peanut Shell Powder with Polyvinyl Alcohol on the Properties of Recycled Polypropylene and Peanut Shell Powder Composites

The effects of the chemical modification of peanut shell powder (PSP) using polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) were studied. Both modified and unmodified peanut shell powder were used to prepare recycled polypropylene (RPP) and PSP composites. The effects of various PSP loadings (0 to 40% by weight) on the pr...
