Physico-chemical Study of Eco-friendly Sugar Palm Fiber Thermoplastic Polyurethane Composites

The physicochemical properties of an innovative and environmentally friendly composite material based on sugar palm fiber (SPF) and thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) were examined. The base material with short fibers was extruded and hot pressed to produce the TPU-SPF composites with different synthe...
