“…Aji et al (2002) reported that composites with higher percentage (12% and above) of groundnut shell filler exhibit poor tensile strength, compared to composites reinforced with lower percentage (below 12%) of groundnut shell filler. Since the tensile strength of the composite general increased up to 6% snail shell/groundnut shell fillers reinforcement, it affirmed previous research (Tepsila and Suksri, 2018) results. Tepsila and Suksri (2018) reported that silicone rubber reinforced with golden apple snail shell filler, yielded superior tensile strength compared to silicone rubber reinforced with CaCO 3 .…”

“…The highest tensile elongation (13.6 mm) was observed at 6% snail shell/groundnut shell fillers loading, while the lowest highest tensile elongation (9.03 mm) was observed at 2% snail shell/groundnut shell fillers loading. Tepsila and Suksri (2018) reported similar results for organic and inorganic calcium carbonate reinforced silicone rubber composites. Tepsila and Suksri (2018) stated that silicone rubber composite produced with in inorganic filler generally had better tensile elongation, compared to the composite produced with filler.…”

Because organic materials are more sustainable, there is a global campaign to use them in composite production. The purpose of this study was to look into the effect of groundnut shell and snail shell fillers on the tensile properties of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) hybridized epoxy composite. The CaCO3 hybridized epoxy composite samples were prepared with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) treated 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, and 10% groundnut shell/snail shell fillers volume. The tensile properties of all composite samples were tested in accordance with ASTM International standards. The tensile test results showed that partial replacement of CaCO3 with snail shell and groundnut shell fillers produced composite samples with good tensile properties. The hybridized composite containing 10% CaCO3 and 6% snail shell/groundnut shell fillers had the highest tensile strength of 27.3 MPa; while the hybridized composite containing10% CaCO3 and 10% snail shell/groundnut shell fillers recorded the lowest tensile strength of 20MPa. Likewise, the results revealed that the hybridized composite containing 10% CaCO3 and 6% snail shell/groundnut shell fillers, recorded the highest tensile elongation (13.6 mm); while the hybridized composite containing 10% CaCO3 and 2% snail shell/groundnut shell fillers, had the lowest highest tensile elongation (9.03 mm). In terms of the tensile energy of the composite produced, the results showed that the hybridized composite reinforced with 10% CaCO3 and 6% snail shell/groundnut shell fillers recorded the highest tensile energy (0.86 Nm) at the fracture point, while the hybridized composite reinforced with 10% CaCO3 and 2% snail shell/groundnut shell filler developed the lowest tensile energy (0.65 Nm) at the fracture point. According to the findings of this study, organic fillers can be used to replace inorganic fillers during composite production. As a result, treated snail and groundnut shell fillers have the potential to be used as a sustainable material in the production of green composites.

“…Effective stress transfer in filled-polymer composites is the key strengthening mechanism for tensile strength enhancement. Also, the presence of calcium carbonate in the snail shell particle [ 17 ], which is hard and rigid, enhances the composite's resistance to deformation, thereby impeding dislocation motion. Another contributing factor was the chain interdiffusion and entanglement between the waste plastic and the snail shell particles which aids improvement in tensile strength in agreement with the research carried out by Daramola et al [ 30 ].…”

“…Thus, the utilization of snail shell particles as reinforcement provides an environmental friendly means of utilizing this animal waste. Snail shell particulate is a potential reinforcement due to the presence of a hard and rigid CaCO 3 phase [ 17 ]. In this study, the viability and environmental feasibility of utilizing snail shell particles as fillers in recycled waste plastic for interior automobile application were investigated.…”

The increase in demand for thermoplastics as a light-weight material for automobile application and other commercial purposes prompts more research into the available polymer resources. In this research, the possibility of enhancing the performance of recycled waste plastics (RWP) as polymer-based composites was examined. Particulate snail shell was obtained by grounding and sieving snail shells to obtain 53–63 μm passing which was used as reinforcement in the recycled waste plastics. The composites were developed by adding varying proportions of the snail shell particulate (SSP) to RWP using a randomly dispersed process in a hot compression moulding machine maintained at 190°C for 7 min. Selected properties of SSP-reinforced RWP composites were examined. The results showed an appreciable enhancement in the properties of composites developed compared to an unreinforced RWP matrix that serves as control. The ultimate tensile strength was enhanced by about 64%, while Young’s Modulus and impact strength were enhanced by 37% and 29%, respectively. Wear and water repellant potentials were highly enhanced with the addition of 15 wt% of SSP with values of about 52% and 91%, respectively. This revealed that high content of the SSP contributes to the improvement of the strain-hardening potentials of the developed composites. The results showed that this composite material can be suitably adapted for use in the interior of automobiles as door sills or the floor panel.

The purpose of this research is to study the preparation of calcium carbonate from cockle shells by precipitation method and compare it to calcium carbonate from high temperature heating, commercial calcium carbonate, and cockle shell powder. The properties of the vulcanized natural rubber mixed with different types of calcium carbonate were observed. It appeared that the precipitated calcium carbonate delivered the best properties (hardness, 300% modulus, tensile strength, elongation at break, tear strength, and abrasion resistance), followed by the high temperature heated calcium carbonate, the commercial calcium carbonate, and the cockle shell powder, respectively. This result corresponded to the morphology from the scanning electron microscope (SEM); the precipitated calcium carbonate had crystalline form and the most uniform particle size, followed by the high temperature heated calcium carbonate, the commercial calcium carbonate, and the cockle shell powder. In particular, the cockle shell powder was composed of large and small particles dispersed over a wide range, which brought about the weak point of vulcanized rubber and caused the lowest properties of the vulcanized rubber mixed with cockle shell powder.
