Creep Analysis Characterization and Study of Biodegradation Effect on Compression Molded LDPE/Cellulose CompositesBy Martin M. Riara, Michael N. Waswa
Abstract: AbstractSynthetic polymers are important industrial materials, but their everyday use is hazardous to the environment. The solution to this seems to lie in modification of their structure through blending with biopolymers. Low density polyethylene (LDPE) and Cellulose were used in sample preparation for research in this work. LDPE/starch composites have undesirable properties and so there was need to explore LDPE/cellulose composites and evaluate their susceptibility to primary biodegradation. Compression molded …
