Influence of alkali treatment and nanoclay content on the properties of rice husk filled polyester composites

The effect of alkali treatment and nanoclay addition on the mechanical properties and water absorption behavior of rice husk particle (RHP) reinforced unsaturated polyester (UP) composites was investigated. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) indicated that the alkali treatment removed most of the hemi...
