LLDPE and Natural Fiber Composites Characterization using AFM

Abstract

The research is focused on the characterization of matrix and filler adhesion, interfacial modifier effects on matrix crystalline formation with filler, depending on the filler modification strategies. Natural fiber filled linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) composites made from surface modified hemp fiber and waste, zinc oxide, using matrix modifier were prepared by two rolls mill and characterize by Atomic Force Microscope (AFM).
