The effect of fiber milling on mechanical properties of polypropylene reinforced oil palm mesocarp fiber biocomposite

Oil palm mesocarp fiber (OPMF) is biomass residue abundantly available at palm oil mill. Being a lignocellulose, it can be used as reinforce material in biocomposite. In this study, the effect of OPMF milling on the mechanical properties of polypropylene (PP)/OPMF biocomposite was studied. Two types...
