The effect of fiber content on cotton reinforced albumen composites

The effect of fiber content on mechanical properties and thermal stability of the cotton/albumen composites (CAC) were investigated and presented in this paper. The composites having 0%, 3%, 6%, 10%, 13 %, and 16% w/w of cotton fiber were considered. Hands lay-up technique was used to prepare the C...
