Modelling of mechanical properties of eco-friendly composites derived from sugar palm tree

Eco-friendly composites have been successfully prepared from the source of sugar palm tree. The effect of fibre contents on mechanical properties of sugar palm fibre reinforced plasticized sugar palm starch (SPF/SPS) biocomposites have been performed and the experimentally tensile properties (tens...
