Oil palm trunk (OPT) is a solid waste obtained in large quantities after the felling of oil palm
trees and is available year-round. Scientists and industrialists face difficulties in utilizing …

In this work, we investigate the effect of the Posidonia Oceanica fiber (POF) rate and matrix
type on the mechanical properties and water absorption behavior of the produced …

Lignin was obtained from black liquor samples from soda-AQ pulping of oil palm empty fruit
bunch (EFB) fiber. Oil palm EFB reinforced epoxy composite samples with varying lignin …

A new class of biocomposites based on oil palm empty fruit bunch fiber and poly (butylene
adipate-co-terephthalate)(PBAT), which is a biodegradable aliphatic aromatic co-polyester …

Natural fine fibers were extracted from Borassus fruits belonging to the Arecaceae family. To
improve the surface, these fibers were treated with aq NaOH solution. Composites were …
