Five percent of triacetin and glycerol contents were used as plasticizers to plasticise PLA matrix. KBF was treated with 4% NaOH solution, while 30 wt% of fibre loading was used constantly for all the composite samples. From the FTIR analysis, the additions of triacetin and glycerol to PLA composites did not produce any significant difference, and there were no chemical changes in both the plasticized PLA with the treated and untreated KBF, respectively. Observation done on the TGA analysis revealed that both plasticizers did improve the thermal stability of the composites, and this might be due to the modification on the fibre surfaces, which further led to the delay in the degradation of the PLA matrix and to significant stabilization effect. 2014-04-27T08:29:08Z 2014-04-27T08:29:08Z 2013 Article Pertanika Journal of Science and Technology, vol. 21(1), 2013, pages 151-160 0128-7680 http://www.pertanika.upm.edu.my/view_archives.php?journal=JST-21-1-1 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/34098 en Universiti Putra Malaysia Press. |
