Hemp Fiber-Reinforced 1-Pentene/Polypropylene Copolymer: The Effect of Fiber Loading on the Mechanical and Thermal Characteristics of the Composites
One of the recent developments in composite technology in South Africa is the increasing use of natural fiber materials in the manufacture of plastic products. Most of the previous work on natural fiber-reinforced composites has focused on sisal fiber as it was commercially available. In this study,...
