Mechanical, thermal and morphological properties of unsaturated polyester/chemically treated woven kenaf fiber/AgNPs@PVA hybrid nanobiocomposites for automotive applications

One of the major problems of the natural fiber reinforced composites is the inadequate interfacial bonding between the fibers and the polymer matrix. This problem can be overcome by removing the lignin and related materials from the fiber by chemical treatments. Besides nanoparticles are drawing mor...
