Properties of oil palm frond - plastic composite (elaeis guineensis) / Muhammad Hafiz Abd Kadir

Plastic composite are being expanded currently. It constructed by composition
with wood fiber and plastic. This research is to determine about the mechanical
and physical properties of plastic composite from 3 different ratios of wood filler.
The small clear specimen of oil palm frond plastic composite was created and
separated with S testing that bending, tensile, impact, thickness swelling and
water absorption. Small particle give higher result in mechanical properties such
as bending, tensile and impact test compared to another size. Besides that,
physical properties give inverse result from mechanical properties.
