Abstract:The surface temperature of the mold is a critical processing parameter that significantly influences the quality of composites during injection molding. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effect of mold surface temperature on the properties of hybrid biocomposite materials prepared by incorporating polypropylene-PP with agro-industrial by-products such as rice husks-RH and fique powder-FP using co-rotating twin-screw extrusion and injection molding. While this article focuses on PP as the polymeric… Show more
