In this research work, composites made from low density polyethylene (LDPE) were tested to see how adding Pea pod particles altered their performance characteristics. Both compounding process and compression molding process were used to create the LDPE/Pea pod particles composites. Optimization was achieved through a factorial experiment design and ANOVA. The mechanical characteristics of the composites were studied. Composites had greater hardness, flexural strength, and tensile strength than the polymer matrix. The increased mechanical performance is partly because of the composite’s extraordinarily homogeneous dispersion of Pea pod particles. The synthetic composites created can be utilized to make environmentally friendly outdoor and indoor fixtures. The optimal condition yields findings that are consistent with the qualities of composites typically are employed for this function.

摘要

In this research work, composites made from low density polyethylene (LDPE) were tested to see how adding Pea pod particles altered their performance characteristics. Both compounding process and compression molding process were used to create the LDPE/Pea pod particles composites. Optimization was achieved through a factorial experiment design and ANOVA. The mechanical characteristics of the composites were studied. Composites had greater hardness, flexural strength, and tensile strength than the polymer matrix. The increased mechanical performance is partly because of the composite’s extraordinarily homogeneous dispersion of Pea pod particles. The synthetic composites created can be utilized to make environmentally friendly outdoor and indoor fixtures. The optimal condition yields findings that are consistent with the qualities of composites typically are employed for this function.
