Effect of Carnauba Wax and Coconut Fiber Contents on Tensile Properties of Corn Starch-Based Biocomposites

Effect of Carnauba Wax and Coconut Fiber Contents on Tensile Properties of Corn Starch-Based Biocomposites

This work aims investigate the changes on tensile properties of biocomposites obtained by addition of carnauba wax and coconut fibers in a corn starch matrix. The influence of carnauba wax and coconut fibers contents on tensile strength, modulus of elasticity and elongation at break was studied usin...
