Effect of water absorption on mechanical properties of sugar palm fibre reinforced sugar palm starch (spf/sps) biocomposites

A novel biocomposite where both natural fibre and matrix are derived from underutilized parts of sugar palm tree was successfully developed. This 100% green materials can lead to solve depletion and non degradable polymer waste disposal problems. Unfortunately, since moisture absorption is a matt...
