EVALUATION OF MECHANICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF BAMBOO LEAF NANO SILICA FILLED WITH RECYCLED LOW DENSITY POLYETHYLNE COMPOSITE

Magaji I. Y*, Umaru H. I, Abdulkadir Suleiman Abdulrahman, Yakubu C.I, Pascaplina L, Hassan S, Kabiru A.B

This study investigates the influence of bamboo leaf nano-silica (BLNS) filler on the mechanical and physical properties of recycled low-density polyethylene (RLDPE). RLDPE composites were fabricated using a two- roll mill at 150°C, followed by compression moulding. A comprehensive evaluation of the composites was conducted, encompassing tensile, i...

THE EFFECT OF FILLER LOADING ON PHYSICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF MAIZE STRAW AND WASTE POLYPROPYLENE PARTICLE COMPOSITE

Magaji I. Y*, Abdulkadir Suleiman Abdulrahman, Umaru H. I, Yakubu C.I, Pascaplina L, Hassan S, Kabiru A.B

This study investigates the effects of maize straw as a filler material in polypropylene composites, with a focus on understanding the influence of filler loading on the material's mechanical and physical properties. Maize straw was prepared by drying and grinding before being compounded with polypropylene using a two-roll mill. The resulting compo...
