Surface modifications of oil palm mesocarp fiber by superheated steam, alkali, and superheated steam-alkali for biocomposite applications
In this work, surface modifications of oil palm mesocarp fiber were carried out by using superheated steam, alkali, and consecutive superheated steam-alkali treatments, aiming at modification of fiber’s surface for biocomposite applications. The chemical compositions of fiber were modified after tre...
