Preparation And Properties Of Kenaf Bast Fiber Filled (Plasticized) Poly(Lactic Acid) Composites

Komposit poli(Iaktik asid) diplastik (p-PLA) terisi gentian kayu kenaf (KBF) telah disediakan dan dikaji secara berperingkat. Pertamanya, poli(Iaktik asid) (PLA) telah diperlembutkan dengan 5 hingga 20% berat poli(etilena glikol) (PEG) menggunakan pencampur dalaman. Adunan dengan 10% berat PEG di...
