Effect of superheated steam treatment on the mechanical properties and dimensional stability of PALF/PLA biocomposite
The effectiveness of superheated steam (SHS) as an alternative, eco-friendly treatment method to modify the surface of pineapple leaf fiber (PALF) for biocomposite applications was investigated. The aim of this treatment was to improve the interfacial adhesion between the fiber and the polymer. The...
