Abstract

Wood plastic composites (WPC) were done using a matrix of polypropylene (PP) thermoplastic resin with wood fibre from Artocarpus odoratissimus as filler. The purpose of this study is to investigate the fracture properties of Artocarpus odoratissimus composite with PP. The WPC was manufactured by a hot - press technique with varying formulations which are 10:0 (100% pure PP), 50:50 (40 g of wood fibre and 40 g of PP) and 60:40 (48 g of wood fibre and 32 g of PP). The mechanical properties were investigated. Tensile and flexural were carried out according to ASTM D 638 and ASTM D 790. The results were analysed to calculate the tensile strength. Tensile strength at break is ranged from 13.2 N/mm2 to 21.7 N/mm2. While, the flexural strength obtained is varying from 14.7 N/mm2 to 31.1 N/mm2. The results of the experiment showed that tensile and flexural properties of the composite increased with the adding of wood fibre material. Finally, the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), have been done to study the fracture behaviour of the WPC specimens.

罗汉果与聚丙烯复合材料的断裂性能研究

采用聚丙烯（PP）热塑性树脂为基体，以Artocarpus odoratissimus木纤维为填料，制备木塑复合材料（WPC）。本研究的目的是研究Artocarpus odoratissimus与PP复合材料的断裂性能。采用热压技术制备了不同配方的木塑复合材料，其配方为10:0（100%纯PP）、50:50（40g木纤维和40g PP）和60:40（48g木纤维与32g PP）。对其力学性能进行了研究。根据ASTM D 638和ASTM D 790进行拉伸和弯曲。对结果进行了分析，以计算抗拉强度。断裂时的抗拉强度范围为13.2 N/mm2至21.7 N/mm2。而获得的弯曲强度在14.7N/mm2到31.1N/mm2之间变化。实验结果表明，随着木纤维材料的加入，复合材料的拉伸和弯曲性能均有所提高。最后，利用扫描电子显微镜（SEM）对WPC试件的断裂行为进行了研究。
