摘要
This paper presents the comparison of mechanical properties of two difference cultivar pineapple leaf fiber (PLF) (Josapine/PLFJ and Sarawak/PLFS) reinforced polypropylene (PP) (copopolymer/PPC and homopolymer/PPH) composite as a function of fiber loading. The samples of PLFJ/PPC and PLFS/PPH composites were fabricated with 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 wt.% PLF loading with 100 mm fiber length. The fabrication was made by compression molding techniques. The results revealed that composites utilizing PLFJ/PPC shows superior tensile properties as compared to the PLFS/PPH. However, there are no significant disparities observed in the density and hardness of both composites.
