Cu Nanoparticles for Improving the Mechanical Performances of Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch Fibers as Analyzed by Weibull Model

Cu nanoparticles (CuNPs) were impregnated in oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) fibers via the cationization process. The fiber surface modification by CuNPs has been verified by Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray study. M...
