Characterization of polyethylene nanocomposite prepared by one-pot extrusion method

This study attempts to produce polyethylene (PE) nanocomposites reinforced with cellulose nanofiber (CNF) derived from oil palm mesocarp fibers (OPMF). Unlike other polymers, PE has always been underestimated and it was extensively been used as packaging products. Therefore, instead of being continu...
