Composite density and tensile modulus increases with increasing WS content wherein tensile strength of composite samples is lower as compared to neat HDPE. Specific modulus and strength show increasing and decreasing trend with higher WS loading respectively. � 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd. All rights reserved.Book chapter
