Static mechanical, interfacial, and water absorption behaviors of alkali treated oil palm mesocarp fiber reinforced poly(butylene succinate) biocomposites

In this work, oil palm mesocarp fiber (OPMF) was surface-treated with varying NaOH concentrations (1, 3, 5, 7, or 9%) and soaking times (1, 2, 3, or 4 h) at room temperature aiming to enhance its adhesion to the thermoplastic matrix for biocomposite application. The biocomposites from alkali treated...
