Effects of plasticizer on mechanical properties of durian skin fiber reinforced polylactic acid biocomposite

This study focus on reinforcing of durian skin fiber (DSF) and polylactic acid (PLA) for food packaging. Epoxidized palm oil (EPO) was used as a plasticizer to enhance the properties of the biocomposite. The biocomposite was fabricated by extrusion and injection molding processes. The tensile proper...
