Effects of Process Parameters in the Production of High Density Polyethylene-Grass Composite
OLODU, DD & OSARENMWINDA, JO
Abstract
This study investigates the effects of process parameters in the production of high density
polyethylene-grass composite; the process parameters and their interaction on the mechanical properties of the
produced high density polyethylene-grass composite were investigated using split-split plot design. The results of the
calculated Fisher’s Ratio (Fcat) at significant value of 0.05 for the process parameters such as percentage by volume
of material, barrel temperature, material type and their interactions ranges from -80.11 to 29.95, and were presented on
ANOVA Table. The results obtained shows that these process parameters contribute significantly to the production of
high density polyethylene-grass composite in polymeric industries.
