Mechanical Properties of Hybrid Fibers-Reinforced Polymer Composite: A Review (2016, background): “The die is heated to speedily cure the resin([4]).”
Effects of extrusion temperature on the rheological, dynamic mechanical and tensile properties of kenaf fiber/HDPE composites (2014, background): “5 wt% fiber increases the shear between fiber–matrix–barrel to give an insufficient melt strength, resulting in poor fiber–matrix adhesions, thus limiting stress transfer between the matrix and the fiber and therefore causes a reduction in the storage modulus [7,21,22].”
Polypropylene–microcrystalline cellulose composites with enhanced compatibility and properties (2009, background): “The shift in Tg can be due to the stress concentrations surrounding the cellulose particles [45].”
Effects of material compositions on the mechanical properties of wood-plastic composites manufactured by injection molding (2009, background): “[28] also reported that the mechanical properties of WPCs were enhanced on increasing the wood flour content up to 50%.”
Critical factors on manufacturing processes of natural fibre composites (2012, background): “mers to make a composite through injection moulding [40–45].”
Study on short ramie fiber/poly(lactic acid) composites compatibilized by maleic anhydride (2014, background): “The increase indicated that the stress was transferred from the matrix to the fibers [30].”
