The physical and mechanical properties of rice husk/ recycled plasticised polyvinyl chloride compression moulded composite at various filler loadings and particle sizes / Farah Nordyana Azizul Rahman

Wood plastic composite is a combination of natural filler and plastic, thus it presents the properties of these two materials. The waste of natural filler and plastic were creating lots of problem to the environment and human health. Thus the research was performed to re-use the waste and value the...

The waste of natural filler and plastic were creating lots of problem to the environment and human health. Thus the research was performed to re-use the waste and value the added materials. In this study, recycled plasticised polyvinyl chloride and rice husk flour which is different in loading and particle size was fabricated using compression moulding method. The different in particle sizes and loadings was to confirm the best particle size and amount of natural filler that suit the composite using this method. The composite was tested to evaluate the physical and mechanical properties. The testing was such as water absorption test, density test, tensile test, three points bending test, drop weight impact test, and scanning electron microscopy to determine fracture behaviour of the composite. 2017 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/85805/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/85805/1/85805.pdf text en public masters Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Faculty of Applied Sciences
