The effect of particle size of angel-wing clam shell [ACS] powder as a natural reinforcing filler on physical and mechanical properties of EPDM rubber / Hannan Ahmad Mazian

In this study, the effect of Angel-wing Clam Shell (ACS) powder as filler on physical and mechanical properties of Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) rubber have been experimentally investigated in different particle sizes (100, 300 and mixture). The preparation of ACS filler has been done by a...
