## Abstract Electron beam (EB) radiation was investigated as a means to initiate coupling between the fiberglass and plastic phases in fiberglass/polyethylene plastic composites using two bifunctional compounds, 12‐azido‐1‐diazo‐2‐dodecanone (A) and 1‐diazo‐17‐octadecene‐2‐one (B). Chemical studies

Composites were made from rubberwood in the form of fibers (RWF) and powder (RWP) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE). The RWP-HDPE composites showed higher tensile strength than those of the fibers. The inferior properties of the RWF-filled composites were believed to be attributed to the agglomer
## Abstract Composites containing 50 wt.‐% fly ash in a PP homopolymer were prepared via batch mixing and compression moulding. The following coupling agents were evaluated: Lubrizol Solplus C800, __N,N__′__‐__(1,3‐phenylene)dimaleimide, γ‐methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane and maleic‐anhydride‐gra
The mechanical properties of composites consisting of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and oil palm fibrous wastes-that is, empty fruit bunch (EFB)have been investigated. Tensile modulus showed an increase, whereas tensile strength, elongation at break, and impact strength decreased with increasing
