Physicochemical and Micromechanical Investigation of a Nanocopper Impregnated Fibre Reinforced Nanocomposite

This paper outlines the synthesis of a novel sustainable nanocomposite and the investigation of its physicochemical and mechanical properties using micromechanical models. As a novel approach, palm oil fibres were treated with freshly prepared nanocopper sols to make them strong and sustainable. Nan...
