Properties and morphology of poly(vinyl alcohol) blends with sago pith bio-filler as biodegradable composites

The effects of sago pith as a bio-filler (SPB) on the mechanical and thermal properties of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) were studied. The SPB was obtained from sago pith waste after starch extraction from sago palm. Sago pith waste was dried and ground to produce SPB. The SPB was blended with PVA in a...
