The performance of thermoplastic composites is known to depend on the intrinsic properties of the two composite components, the quality of the fiber-matrix interface, and the crystalline properties of their matrix. The objective of this work is to characterize the effect of the addition of modified

## Abstract A group of short glass fiber (SGF) and liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) reinforced polypropylene (PP) hybrid composites and toughened with maleic anhydride (MA)‐grafted styrene–ethylene butylene–styrene (SEBS‐__g__‐MA) elastomers with controlled morphology were designed and injection mo
Rubber engineers face difficulties in scorching and vulcanizing during rubber processing, particularly of natural rubber (NR). Therefore, this work tried to solve these problems by blending thermoplastic rubber with NR compound. The results indicated that the scorch resistance of the NR was improved
## 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 melt‐mixing and solution‐mixing methods. A large amount of fiber breakage was observed during melt mixing. The fiber br
