Short jute fiber-reinforced polypropylene (PP) composites were prepared using a high-speed thermokinetic mixer. A compatibilizer was used to improve the molecular interaction between jute and PP. Both the percent weight fraction of the jute fiber and compatibilizer were varied to study the dynamic m

The partial impregnation textile preform consisting of chopped-strand, long glass fiber and nonwoven polypropylene (PP) has been prepared by needle-punching to improve fiber-matrix distribution before processing. These unconsolidated textile preforms were then preheated and hot-pressed for consolida
Pineapple leaf fiber (PALF) which is rich in cellulose, relatively inexpensive, and abundantly available has the potential for polymer reinforcement. The present study investigated the tensile, flexural, and impact behavior of PALF-reinforced polyester composites as a function of fiber loading, fibe
The thermal behavior and dynamic mechanical properties of isotactic polypropylene (PP) and reactor blend PP/ethylene-propylene copolymer (EPM), reinforced with different amounts of short glass fibers (GF) and/or polyester fibers (PETF), were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) an
In the present article, a series of commercial-grade polypropylenes (PP) filled with different contents of short basalt fibers were studied. This composite material presented deterioration of both mechanical characteristics, for example, stress and strain at yield with increasing of the fiber conten
Three types of high-strength polyethylene (PE) fiber-reinforced composite sheets were made by compression molding at the vicinity of melting point of the fiber. Sheet I was molded from only PE fibers. Sheets II and III were prepared by the compression molding of PE fiber with conventional high-and l
