Abstract:Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) is one of the good and environmentally friendly natural rigid fillers used in polymer matrix composites to improve mechanical properties. However, the reliability of this MCC composite cannot be ensured in a humid environment or submerged in water with different pH. This study investigated the addition of MCC filler to the absorption of distilled water (pH 7), seawater (pH8), and acid solution (pH 3), flexural strength, and flexural modulus of kenaf/glass fiber reinforced polym… Show more
