Impact of Fillers on Mechanical Properties of Biomass Composites

Abstract:

In order to improve the mechanical properties of bio composites and reduce the cost of materials, this paper studies the Impact of three fillers-talcum powder, montmorillonite and lignin sulfonate-on the compressive strength and impact absorbing energy of biomass composite, and observes the effects of three fillers on the foam structures by SEM experiments. The study found that sodium lignosulfonate is a good dispersant and water reducing agent, forming the most uniform pore structure in the molded foam process, and this mesh frame structure of biomass composite with three-dimensional and uniform pores shows better effect of compressive resistance and buffering.
