Low Strain Rates Behaviour of Carbon Nanotube Enhanced Bagasse-Epoxy Polymer Composites for Dynamic Structure Applications
The demand for the high-performance natural fibre reinforced polymer composite is growing day by day. However, uneven micro-sized natural fibre like bagasse has causes low performance due to sensitive crack initiation and propagation in composite at higher tensile cross-head speed. In this researc...

| description | The demand for the high-performance natural fibre reinforced polymer composite is growing day by day.
However, uneven micro-sized natural fibre like bagasse has causes low performance due to sensitive
crack initiation and propagation in composite at higher tensile cross-head speed. In this research, further
reinforcement using single-wall carbon nanotube was able to enhance tensile properties of bagasse
composite to certain extend and achieving high strength to weight ratio at higher tensile crosshead speed. |
