ABSTRACT

Different process routes have been explored and process conditions have been optimized by analyzing their effects on structure and properties of single-polymer composites (SPCs). All-cellulose composites (ACC) are one of the latest classes of SPCs. S. Pang showed that tensile strength of ACC films produced from cotton linter is better than conventional Polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE) films. PP SPCs have properties like higher thermoformability, better impact resistance, and higher mechanical properties than the homopolymer and for even majority of the PP-glass composite combinations. In the automotive industry, like other SPCs, Armordon has also been predicted to be of great use. Armordon has high impact strength and low density, making it the preferred choice in cases where strength and weight saving are key parameters. Armordon offers excellent cost-effective performance in areas of ballistic and blast protection, helping armoring specialists to encounter increasing need for protective solutions.
