Development of Cu Nanoparticle Loaded Oil Palm Fibre Reinforced Nanocomposite
Functionalized copper nanoparticles (FCuNPs) have been synthesized by chemical reduction method and polyvinyl al- cohol (PVA) performed as a stabilizer in that medium. Analysis observed that the average size of the synthesized FCuNPs was 3.5 nm. The obtained FCuNPs were loaded in the oil palm empty...

Functionalized copper nanoparticles (FCuNPs) have been synthesized by chemical reduction method and polyvinyl al- cohol (PVA) performed as a stabilizer in that medium.

Before the loading of FCuNPs in EFB fibres, the surface of the fibres is tailored by the cationic agent CHPTAC since they have a natural tendency to exhibit negatively charged surface owing to the presence of large amount of hydroxyl groups.
