| Popis: | This study was conducted to investigate the effect of nanoclay addition on thermal and dynamic mechanical properties of polypropylene (PP) biocomposites reinforced with bleached red algae fiber (BRAF), kenaf fiber (KF), and cotton pulp fiber (CPF). The nano-biocomposites were fabricated with 40 wt.% loading of all natural fibers and addition of nanoclay at 5 or 10 wt.% loading by the melting compounding and compression molding techniques. The nanoclay effects on the thermal and dynamic mechanical properties of the biocomposites were analyzed as a function of properties of natural fibers such as chemical composition, fiber length, and surface morphology. Although the thermal decomposition temperature of nano-biocomposites decreased with the addition of nanoclay, the dimensional stability of biocomposites greatly improved with increasing nanoclay loading. Also, the dynamic mechanical properties of nano-biocomposites for the PP reinforced with BRAF, KF, and CPF were enhanced with the addition of 5 wt% nanocl... |
