The effects of extractives and compatibilizers on the flexural properties of natural fiber-thermoplastic composites

Creator:

Saputra, Hartono A.

Abstract:

Natural fibers such as wood, flax, and hemp are frequently used as fillers in natural fiber-plastic composites (NFPCs). At present, wood fiber is the most commonly used filler in the production of wood-plastic composites (WPCs). The advantages of these fibers compared to conventional inorganic fibers such as glass fiber is...

Copper compounds for durable composites : effects on material properties

Creator:

Vidrine, Cheney L.

Abstract:

The effects of incorporation of selected biocides on physical and mechanical properties of aspen strandboard were assessed using five copper-based preservatives or zinc borate at three retention levels. Tebuconazole or 4,5-dichloro-2-N-octyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (DCOI) were added as co-biocides to selective copper-based treatments. Mold box tests showed that only panels treated with DCOI...

Failure analysis of pre-notched composite laminated plates under four-point bending conditions

Creator:

Arias Gonzales, Sergio

Abstract:

Ever since composite laminate technology was introduced into the aerospace and automotive industry, there has been a need to fully understand the damage progression experienced by composite laminated plates in the presence of a notch. While numerous research studies have been conducted on this matter when subjected to in-plane loads,...
