Moisture Absorption Characteristics and Subsequent Mechanical Property Loss of Enset–PLA Composites

One of the drawbacks of natural fibers and their composites is their inherent hydrophilic nature. The effect of moisture on the mechanical properties of composites is irrefutable. This study deals with the hygroscopic characteristics of enset–PLA composites and their effect on the mechanical propert...
