Effects of the Addition of Pistachio Shell Particles on the Properties of Polyurethane Matrix Composite

Abstract

In this research, a composite material-based polyurethane matrix with natural resources is prepared via the casting method and the effects of the weight fractions (2.5-12.5) wt% of pistachio shell particles on the properties of the prepared composite are investigated. Mechanical and physical tests are also conducted to evaluate the prepared composites and the maximum tensile strength at 5% wt., compression strength at 7.5wt%, impact strength at 2.5 wt%, Shore D hardness at 12.5%, and no reduction in water absorption.
