Mechanical and physical properties of kenaf-reinforced poly(lactic acid) plasticized with epoxidized jatropha oil
Epoxidized jatropha oil (EJO) was investigated as a sustainable alternative to petrochemical-based plasticizers to reinforce the plastics, leading to increased ductility and toughness of kenaf-reinforced poly(lactic acid) (PLA). The EJO was melt-blended into kenaf-reinforced PLA at concentrations fr...
