Properties of (Low‐density polyethylene)/(natural rubber)/(water hyacinth fiber) composites: The effect of polyaniline

Abstract: The effects of polyaniline (PANI)-modified water hyacinth fiber on the properties of (low-density polyethylene)/(natural rubber)/(water hyacinth fiber) (LDPE/NR/ WHF) composites were studied. The composites were prepared by using a Brabender Plasticorder at 160 o C and a rotor speed of 50 rpm for 6 minutes. LDPE/NR/ WHF PANI composites exhibited higher tensile strength, Young's modulus, elongation at break, melting temperature, and electrical conductivity but lower molar sorption, capacitance, percentage cryst… Show more

“…Lately, there has been a flow in research on polyaniline since it was shown that its conductivity could be increased by more than ten order magnitudes by doping them with proton acids [3]. Supri et al [4] investigated the effect of polyaniline content on the electrical conductivity and morphology of low density polyethylene/natural rubber/water hyacinth fiber composites. The addition of polyaniline of composites has higher conductivity than the composites without the polyaniline.…”

“…Agglomeration of PAni particles contributes to the formation of the conductive path and will improve the conductivity of the PVC/PEO/PAni conductive film composites. Supri et al reported that at high‐fiber loading, the tendency of fiber to increasingly agglomerate was due to the formation of filler–filler interaction rather than matrix–filler interaction.…”

“…The results for the samples containing PE-g-MA demonstrated that it is necessary to optimize the coupling interaction between the component materials, with the application of an peroxide to start the process of formation of free radicals with which the mechanical performance of the mix, although the values obtained are functional for the development of products in the industry, comparing the results with mixtures of PE and natural fibers [32,33].…”
