Impact Properties of Biocomposites

Goda et al. [133] studied the effect of water content on the impact energy of green composites with ramie fibers and biodegradable thermoplastic resin made 

DMA is a very powerful method capable of providing information on the thermal mechanical behavior of polymer composites as well as viscoelastic polymer materials and the blends due to the temperature dependence of the storage modulus, loss modulus, and tan S. The glass transition behavior, which is sensitive to molecular mobihty, material stiffness, and damping behavior of a polymeric material, can be studied using DMA.
