Morphological characterization of chicken feather rachis, neem sawdust, and high density polyethylene (HDPE) reinforced composite material

Abstract

In this paper research was expanded on waste that can be recycled. There are so many different types of waste products available in our country that would ruin the environment. Three different products are considered to reduce some of the problems among them two are fibers and the other is polyethylene. Chicken feather rachis and Neem sawdust are the two different fibers and the reinforced material is high density polyethylene (HDPE). These materials are made as seven different compositions to find the ability of the sample in different characterizations. The seven compositions are 80H- 10CF-10SD, 80H-5CF-15SD, 80H-15CF-5SD, 80H-20CF, 70H-30CF, 70H-30SD, 80H- 20SD, and these compositions are made in CIPET, Hyderabad by using single screw extruder & strand pelletizer. These granules are prepared with the help of Injection moulding, the samples are examined by various testing to prove the ability, strength, structure of materials in individual, and combination forms. The testing conducted for the samples is that theMorphology of the sample was characterized using FESEM, XRD. It is examined that the ratios are light weight with high strength by using the testings and it gives perfect images without any cracks on the surface and no more defects among these ratios.
