Effect of chemical surface treatment on the mechanical properties of reinforced plasticized poly(lactic acid) biodegradable composites

Biodegradable composites were prepared by melt-blending technique using 30 wt% kenaf bast fiber (KBF) to reinforce 70 wt% plasticized poly(lactic acid) (PLA). The KBF was treated with various percentages of sodium hydroxide (NaOH), whereas 5% triacetin was used as plasticizer. The effects of the KBF...
