Effect of fiber loading on mechanical and morphological properties of cocoa pod husk fibres reinforced thermoplastic polyurethane composites

Effect of fiber loading on mechanical and morphological properties of cocoa pod husk fibres reinforced thermoplastic polyurethane composites

In this study, cocoa (Theobroma cacao) pod husk (CPH) fiber reinforced thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) was prepared by melt compounding method using Haake Polydrive R600 internal mixer. The composites were prepared with different fiber loading: 20%, 30% and 40% (by weight), with the optimum process...
