Abstract:Hybrid polymer composites have been proven to be an alternative to the conventional ones that use only one filler in the polymeric matrix. In this study, the effect of the addition of cotton linter fibers (CLF) and/or montmorillonite (MMT) nanoclay as fillers in recycled polyethylene (PER) composites was evaluated with and without using maleic anhydride grafted polyethylene (PE– g–MAH) as an interfacial compatibilizing agent. The presence of titanium dioxide (TiO2) used as a color additive was confirmed by the… Show more
