The efect of maleic anhydride polyethylene on mechanical properties of pineapple leaf fibre reinforced polylactic acid composites
The study of natural fber composite in the feld of materials has indeed sparked interest among many due to its essential biodegradability feature. As such, pineapple leaf fber (PALF) is not only biodegradable, but also environmental friendly, as opposed to synthetic fber. Hence, this paper inves...

description |
The study of natural fber composite in the feld of materials has indeed sparked interest among many due to its essential
biodegradability feature. As such, pineapple leaf fber (PALF) is not only biodegradable, but also environmental friendly,
as opposed to synthetic fber. Hence, this paper investigates the efect of fber loading, as well as the inclusion of maleic
anhydride polyethylene (MAPE) to the mechanical properties of PALF reinforced polylactic acid composites. Therefore,
untreated PALF with 0, 5, 10, and 15% of weight content ratio, as well as PALF at 10% weight ratio treated with 2, 4, and
6% of MAPE, had been prepared via roll mill mixing at 190 °C and followed by hot compression molding to prepare the
specimen sheets. The results obtained from this study revealed that the tensile strength (TS) and the Young’s modulus were
at their highest levels for untreated 10% PALF, while the impact and the fexure properties displayed a decrease as the con�tent of fber increased. Other than that, the inclusion of MAPE indicated that the tensile properties exhibited lower value
compared to that of untreated. However, the fexural and the impact properties of composites increased with the presence
of MAPE. As a conclusion, the study demonstrates that the mechanical properties depended on two major factors; (1) fber
loading, and (2) the compatibility between matrix polymer and fber. |
