Physical and mechanical properties of thermoplastic composite from gliricidia sepium / Shaikh Abdul Karim Yamani

The study was conducted to determine the fiber morphology, density and the chemical properties of Gliricidia sepium concerning tree age. Thermoplastic composite boards of four variables: three tree ages (1,2 and 6 years old tree), four wood particles sizes (75U, 125^, 250|a and unscreen), three fill...
