Biocomposites of recycled high-density polyethylene (rHDPE)/recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) matrices with a high loading of rice husk flour (RHF) were fabricated through a two-step extrusion. The use of ethylene-glycidyl methacrylate (E-GMA) copolymer improved the compatibility of the immiscible rHDPE/rPET blend. Maleic anhydride polyethylene (MAPE) was used as a coupling agent to increase the adhesion of the fibre–matrix interface. In this study, the effect of natural fibre loadings on rHDPE/rPET blends was examined. The water absorption process in the RHF-filled composites followed the kinetics and mechanisms of Fickian diffusion. Compared with samples without RHF, the rHDPE/rPET/RHF system had 58–172% higher tensile modulus and 80–305% flexural modulus. The thermal stability of the composites slightly increased with the addition of the RHF filler. The storage modulus of biocomposites was greatly enhanced by RHF. From these results, we can conclude that RHF can work well with rHDPE/rPET for manufacturing high loading biocomposite products.

The performance of hybrid fillers between rice husk and sawdust filled recycled high density polyethylene (rHDPE) with the presence of antioxidants (IRGANOX 1010 and IRGAFOS 169, with the ratio of 1 : 1) was investigated. The biocomposites with 30 wt% of matrix and around 70 wt% of hybrid fillers (rice husk and sawdust) and different antioxidants’ contents (0 to 0.7 wt%) were prepared with single screw extruder. Increasing the amount of antioxidants in biocomposites reduced the modulus of elasticity and modulus of rupture on flexural testing. The addition of antioxidants increased the tensile and impact strength of biocomposites. From the study, samples with 0.5 wt% of antioxidants produce the most reasonable strength and elasticity of biocomposites. Furthermore, the effect of antioxidants content on water uptake was minimal. This might be caused by the enhanced interfacial bonding between the polymer matrix and hybrid fillers, as shown from the morphology by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Biocomposites of recycled high density polyethylene / recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rHDPE/rPET) blend incorporated with rice husk flour (RHF) were prepared using a corotating twin screw extruder. Maleic anhydride polyethylene (MAPE) was added as a coupling agent to improve the fibre-matrix interface adhesion. The effect of high filler loadings (50–90 wt%) on morphology and tensile properties of compatibilized rHDPE/rPET blend was investigated. The results of our study shown that composite with 70 wt% exhibited the highest tensile strength and Young’s modulus, which are 22 MPa and 1752 MPa, respectively. The elongation at break decreased with increasing percentage of RHF. SEM micrograph confirmed fillers dispersion, morphological interaction and enhanced interfacial bonding between recycled polymer blends and rice husk. It can be concluded that the optimum RHF content is 70 wt% with maximum tensile strength.

Polymer blends based on recycled high density polyethylene (rHDPE) and recycled poly (ethylene terephthalate) (rPET) with two types of ethylene-glycidyl methacrylate copolymer (E-GMA), Lotader AX8840 and Lotader AX8900 as compatibilizer were produced in a co-rotating twin screw extruder. The effects of adding rPET content on the impact properties of rHDPE-rich blends were also investigated. The result showed an enhancement of about 80-270% in impact properties as compared to those of the Lotader AX8900. The impact strength also showed a decreasing trend as the rPET content was increased. The addition of E-GMA to the rHDPE/rPET blends was found to recover the blend toughness as well as improving the compatibility between HDPE and PET. In this study, the highest result was obtained for the rHDPE/rPET blends using Lotader AX8840 composition with 7.5% E-GMA content. FTIR analysis of the compatibilized blends confirmed the chemical interaction and improved interfacial bonding between the two phases.
