Effect of electron beam irradiation and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) addition on mechanical properties of polycaprolactone with empty fruit bunch fiber (OPEFB) composite
Biodegradable composites or green composites were prepared by melt blending technique using polycaprolactone and oil palm empty fruit bunch fibre (OPEFB). Since OPEFB is not compatible with PCL a binder, poly(vinyl pyrrolidone), (PVP) was used to improve the interaction between PCL and OPEFB. The co...
