Overview

Study demonstrates improved mechanical properties in high-density polyethylene composites, indicating potential for construction applications.

Key Points

  • Composites reinforced with 12 wt.% silica and kaolin achieved the highest tensile strength of 30.93 MPa.
  • The flexural strength reached 77.81 MPa at 18 wt.% filler loading, indicating enhanced performance for flooring and roofing usages.
  • SEM analysis revealed that optimal filler dispersion occurs at 6 wt.%, 12 wt.%, and 18 wt.%, while higher concentrations led to agglomeration.
  • Multiple Linear Regression provided more accurate predictions for impact strength compared to the Artificial Neural Network model.
