Effects of MAPE Treatments on Thermal Properties of Silvergrass Reinforced High Density Polyethylene Composites

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study,silvergrass (SV) reinforced high density polyethylene (HDPE) composites (WPCs) were prepared by injection molding. The effects of maleated polyethylene (MAPE), Slivergrass fibers (SV) content on the thermal, crystalline properties of WPCs were investigated. It was found that compared with the untreated WPCs, the thermal stability of the composites after incorporation of MAPE was significantly improved. Moreover, the results show that with MAPE adding, SV was an effective heterogeneous nucleating agent.
