Preparation of durian skin nanofibre (DSNF) and its effect on the properties of Polylactic Acid (PLA) Biocomposites

Biological fermentation of Rhizopus oryzae was introduced to extract cellulose nanofibre from durian skin fibre (DSF). The diameter of the extracted durian skin nanofibre (DSNF) was in the range of 49-81 nm. The changes of chemical composition of DSNF were clearly seen after evaluated via TAPPI stan...
