Evaluation of microwave activity on starch-based nanocomposites reinforced at different loading fraction organic-to-inorganic nanofillers

When subjected to microwave ageing, the microwave-induced improvement in properties is more significant for sample containing higher loading fraction of cellulose nanofiller. This is due to cellulose nanofiller has greater reactivity to microwave energy through activation of dipole–dipole interactio...
