The Effect of Hydrochloric Acid Treatment on Properties of Oil Palm Ash-filled Natural Rubber Composites

TL;DR: In this paper, the properties of non-treated and hydrochloric acid (HCl)-treated oil palm ash (OPA)-filled natural rubber (NR) composites were investigated in terms of swelling behavior, rubber-filler interaction, ageing resistance, dynamic mechanical analysis, and thermal stability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microstructure and fracture behavior of (co)injection‐molded polyamide 6 composites with short glass/carbon fiber hybrid reinforcement

TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanical and fracture properties of injection molded short glass fiber/short carbon fiber reinforced polyamide 6 (PA 6) hybrid composites were studied and failure mechanisms of both the matrix and the composites, assessed by fractographic studies in a scanning electron microscope, were discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of compatibilizer and testing speed on the mechanical and morphology behaviors of co-continuous amorphous copolyester-polyoxymethylene blends

TL;DR: In this article, two types of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) (i.e., polyester-based and polyether-based) were used to compatibilize the co-continuous amorphous copolyester and polyoxymethylene (POM) blends.

Sustainable Housing Development and Leadership: A Review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of the published works that linked the key words of sustainability, housing industry and leadership styles and qualities, and discuss the current sustainable housing development practices in Malaysia and find the most probable leadership qualities for sustainable development.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effects of a Silane-Based Coupling Agent on the Properties of Kenaf Core-Reinforced High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE)/Soya Powder Composites

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of kenaf-core filler loading and chemical treatment on properties of HDPE/soya powder/kenafcore composites were investigated by FTIR, SEM, water absorption and mechanical tests.
