Mechanical and thermal properties of bio-composites based on polypropylene reinforced with Nut-shells of Argan particles

► Nuts-shells of Argan particles are used as reinforcement in thermoplastic matrix. ► Particles are homogeneously dispersed and distributed within PP matrix. ► Mechanical and thermal characterization of the composite are applied. ► Particles-matrix adhesion was assured by the use of a SBS compatibilizer.
