Abstract
Process ability study of hybrid bio-composite is very important and useful to predict final product processing method parameter setting and quality. A brabender torque rheometer was used to analyse graphically the fusion characteristic of composite materials. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of loading various fillers on the fusion characteristic of a composite product. In this study rigid Poly Vinyl Chloride PVC was used as matrix material. Pineapple Leaf Fiber PALF and Coconut coir fiber CCoir were used as filler material. The formulation was strengthened by adding additive materials namely lubricant stabilizer inorganic filler coupling agent and biocides. The results indicated that loading of filler material increased the fusion time. The torque at loading peak and stable time decreased gradually with loading of filler material. However the decrease rate was dependent on the percentage and type of filler materials used.
