Graft copolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) on viscose fibers (grade 1.5 1 51 mm; Nagda; grey staple; bright bleached) was studied under a photoactive condition with visible light using conventional Mohr's salt-potassium persulphate as the redox initiator. The mechanical properties of the gr

## Abstract A hydrogel is a polymeric material that exhibits the ability to swell in water and retains a significant fraction of water within its structure, but does not dissolve in water. One of the major problems in the application of these materials is their relatively poor mechanical strength,
## Abstract Sisal fibers were used for the reinforcement of a polypropylene (pp) matrix. Composites consisting of polypropylene reinforced with short sisal fibers were prepared by meltβmixing and solutionβmixing methods. A large amount of fiber breakage was observed during melt mixing. The fiber br
