The 2nd International Malaysia-Ireland Joint Symposium on Engineering, Science and Business 2012 (IMiEJS2012) jointly organized by Universiti Malaysia Perlis and Athlone Institute of Technology in collaboration with The Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE) Malaysia, Education Malaysia and Malaysia Postgraduates Student Association Ireland (MyPSI), 18th - 19th June 2012 at Putra World Trade Center (PWTC), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The effects of alkaline treatment on tensile properties, swelling behaviour and morphology properties of low density polyethylene / natural rubber / water hyacinth fiber composites were studied. The LDPE/NR/WHF and LDPE/NR/WHFNaOHcomposites were prepared using a BrabenderPlasticorder at 160oC and rotor speed of 50 rpm for 6 minutes. LDPE / NR / WHFNaOH composites exhibit higher tensile strength, Young’s modulus and elongation at break but lower molar sorption than LDPE/NR/WHF composites. The SEM morphology of LDPE/NR/WHFNaOH compositesdisplaysbetter interfacial adhesion between water hyacinth fibers (WHFNaOH) and LDPE/NR phases than LDPE/NR/WHF composites. 2013-12-21T03:47:44Z 2013-12-21T03:47:44Z 2012-06-18 Working Paper p. 829 - 835 978-967-5760-11-2 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/30712 en Proceedings of the The 2nd International Malaysia-Ireland Joint Symposium on Engineering, Science and Business 2012 (IMiEJS2012); Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)
