This study aims to examine the effectiveness of addition Silane Coupling Agent on physical properties (density, moisture content, thickness expansion, and water absorption) flexural strength in manufacture areca nut peel fiber particle board with urea formaldehyde adhesive. The betel was alkalized using NaOH for 2 hours, then mashed a grinding machine until it passed 50 mesh sieve. skin fibers ...

A filler for a urethanedimethacrylate composite was silanated with mixtures of fluoroalkyl-, aminoalkyl-, phenyl-, vinyl-, bis silyl ethane- and 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MAOP) in an attempt to increase the hydrophobicity of the coupling agent layer. Diametral tensile strength was used to evaluate composites stored for (1) 24 h in 23 degrees C (RT) air; (2) 24 h in RT air plus 24 h ...

Effects of modifying oil palm mesocarp fibers (OPMF) by methacrylate silane on polylactic acid (PLA)/ polycaprolactone (PCL)/clay/OPMF hybrid composites were investigated. The composites were prepared by a melt blending technique and characterized by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The silane-treated OPMF hybrid composites showed better tensile strength...

The incorporation of metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) in fiber filters is an effective approach to enhance the specific surface area and roughness fiber, hence improving their efficiency for fine dust capture other gas treatment or biological applications. Nevertheless, uneven distribution NPs limits practical In this study, a commercial silane coupling agent (3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilan...
