Influence of dammar gum application on the mechanical properties of pineapple leaf fiber reinforced tapioca biopolymer composites

The objective of this work is to investigate the influence of the utilization of dammar gum (DG), which is a biodegradable and renewable binder, on the mechanical properties of short pineapple leaf fiber (PALF) reinforced tapioca biopolymer (TBP). Samples with variable DG concentrations (10%, 20%, 3...
