Characterization and biodegradability of extruded foamed polypropylene filled pineapple leaf fiber biocomposites
Polymer foam biocomposites based on Polypropylene (PP)-Pineapple Leaf Fiber (PALF) were successfully produced by an extrusion foaming process. The compounding of PP with PALF was performed in twin-screw extruder which blend the materials with dicumyl peroxide (DCP) and chemical blowing agent (ADC)....
