The study tests mechanical properties of composite material from high-density polyethylene, rice husk ash, and fly ash, revealing variable stress outcomes.
Key Points
Maximum stress reached 10.506 kN in the pure HDPE composite mix, indicating strong mechanical performance.
The test samples included varying ratios, with stress values decreasing as RHA and FA content increased.
Composite mixing utilized a 3D rotary mixer followed by shaping with a hot press machine for mechanical testing.
The findings highlight the potential of agricultural waste in enhancing polymer composites' mechanical properties.
