Abstract

ABSTRACT Eco-friendly Bagasse Fiber Reinforced Functionalized Styrene Ethylene Butylene Styrene (BGF/CF-SEBS) composites have been developed by Palsule process by twin screw extrusion and injection molding. The composites show higher mechanical properties relative to the matrix that increases with increasing fiber contents in them. FE-SEM micrographs show good interfacial adhesion between reinforcing BGF and CF-SEBS matrix in the composites and FTIR confirms its origin from the ester and hydrogen bonds formed between –OH of BGF and anhydride of CF-SEBS in the composites. Thermal stability of the composites is intermediate between those of BGF and CF-SEBS.
