Preparation and characterization of polylactic acid/ poly (ԑ-caprolactone) /clay/ oil palm mesocarp fiber hybrid composite

The research focused on incorporation of Oil Palm Mesocarp Fiber (OPMF) as filler in polylactic acid/poly(ε-caprolactone) (PLA/PCL) blends. The addition of clay as compatibilizer to improve mechanical and thermal properties of the composites. OPMF was bleached and then treated with silane coupling a...
