Effect of durian peel fiber on thermal, mechanical, and biodegradation characteristics of thermoplastic cassava starch composites
This study is focused on developing and enhancing the properties of durian peel fiber (DPF) reinforced thermoplastic cassava starch (TPCS) composites. The proposed DPF was extracted from agro-waste and incorporated into TPCS with various contents of DPF (10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 wt%) via compression m...

The tensile and flexural strengths of TPCS/DPF composites were raised significantly from 2.96 to 21.89 MPa and 2.5 to 35.0 MPa, respectively, compared to the control TPCS sample, as DPF increased from 0 to 40 wt%.

The analysis revealed that DPF at a 40 wt% ratio was the best composition compared to the other ratio. Finally, based on improved results, DPF was identified as a potential resource of green reinforcement for the biodegradable TPCS matrix. � 2023 Final 2024-10-14T03:17:40Z 2024-10-14T03:17:40Z 2023 Article 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126295 2-s2.0-85172150081 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85172150081&doi=10.1016%2fj.ijbiomac.2023.126295&partnerID=40&md5=f31b697846f8a177dbacc66b59ef15eb https://irepository.uniten.edu.my/handle/123456789/34014 250 126295 Elsevier B.V.
