Matrix/fiber interfacial bonding, is one of the most significant issues that needed to be
addressed, for the wider acceptance of natural fiber reinforced composites to outdoor
applications. The hydrophilic nature of the specific fibers is a major obstacle for the bonding
with the hydrophobic polymer matrices, thus the formation of poor interface between the two
components is inevitable. In this study, unidirectional flax fiber reinforced Polylactic Acid
(PLA) composites (Flax/PLA) were fabricated through “film stacking method”, resulting to …
