Characterisation of Cassava Bagasse and Composites Prepared by Blending with Low-Density Polyethylene

The main objective of this study was to characterise the cassava bagasse and to evaluate its addition in composites. Two cassava bagasse samples were characterised using physicochemical, thermal and microscopic techniques, and by obtaining their spectra in the mid-infrared region and analysing them...
