Investigation of Snake Grass/Casuarina/Cork Filler Reinforced Bio Polymer Hybrid Composite
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The environment is continuously affected for various reasons, prompting researchers to seek solutions from different angles. This study explores the potential of mixing polymers with and without agricultural/bio fillers such as Snake Grass / Casuarina / Cork in various volume proportions, analyzing their mechanical properties. The hybrid materials are made with the polymers and bio fillers without any change in the quality of existing polymer products, the quality of hybrid materials is assured by the results of impact, flexural, and tensile tests. Finally, the biodegradability tests revealed weight loss in a soil burial test when bio-filler was added to the polymer composite.
