High density polyethylene (HDPE)/China clay blend / Nur Raihan Mohamed

The effect of China clay on the HDPE properties was studied. This studied covered the effect of maleic anhydride as the coupling agent in this blends. The specimens were fabricated at temperature 170 °C by using the compression moulding machine and cut into the bar shape according to both ASTM and I...
