Banana trunk / polyvinyl alcohol composite : the effect of filler loading and gult palmitate salt as coupling agent / Muhammad Syafiq Mohd Shukri
A Poly (vinyl alcohol) filled with banana trunk fibre (PVA/BT) film was prepared by solution casting technique. The glut Palmitate Salt (GP) as a coupling agent was added in the PVA/BT. The prepared films were studied for mechanical properties of tensile strength, Young’s Modulus and percentage of e...
