4. Conclusions
The polymer composite was developed from the blend of NRG and PSF wastes with addition of MA and cellulose from sugar cane leaves. Their mechanical properties were better than those of PSF due to the chemical reaction between PSF/cellulose and MA which were confirmed by gel content and ATR-FTIR. The highest tensile strength of sample was found in 30/70 NRG/PSF blended with 10% MA and 12% cellulose. This observation was supported by SEM, toluene resistance, impact strength and hardness. The polymer composite would potentially be used in artificial wood, artificial bone, pot and picture frame.
