The effects of joint process parameters of two-step manufacturing processes on the mechanical performance of biocomposites using Taguchi and multiple regression techniques

This study evaluates the influence of joint parameters of extrusion (extrusion profile
temperature) and injection molding (barrel profile temperature) manufacturing
processes on the mechanical performance of biocomposite material via the Taguchi and multiple regression techniques. Statistical analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed to determine the most influential controllable factors for the individual responses. The results of the study revealed that the mechanical properties of the biocomposites are affected by the joint parameters of the two-step manufacturing techniques. This study will help in the process design of biocomposites with improved mechanical performance.
