Abstract

In this paper , the mechanical properties of high density polyethylene
(HDPE grade M624) produced by SCPI / Basrah – Iraq , mixed with the wood
flour and bagasse as fillers with 10-50 % w/w have been studied . The maximum
tensile strength was observed at 10% w/w of fillers ratio . The elongation , impact
strength and fracture energy were decreased with increasing of fillers ratio while
the Young modulus and hardness were increased .
