Preparation and characterization of low density polyethylene/thermoplastic sago starch/kenaf core fiber composites and their hybrid composites with halloysite clay

This present work demonstrated the potential of halloysiteclay (HC) hybridized with kenaf core fibers (KCF) to reinforce the low density polyethylene (LDPE)/thermoplastic sago starch (TPSS) blends. The effects of HC loading (3-15 phr) on the mechanical, thermal and morphological properties were eval...
