Investigation reveals improved thermal stability and impact resistance in polymer composites with agricultural waste fillers.

The inclusion of 30 wt.% agricultural waste fillers improved the glass transition temperature by 8.5%, enhancing thermal stability.
Hybrid laminated composites demonstrated a significant 142% increase in impact resistance during low-velocity impact testing.
Sustainable composites incorporating walnut, coffee, and coconut shell particles showcase environmental advantages over synthetic fillers.
The study suggests that agricultural waste can be effectively utilized to enhance the performance of polymer composites in automotive applications.

Aidoo et al. (2025) studied this question.
