Effect of alkali treatment on the mechanical properties of Poly (lactic acid) / Guineacorn husk particulate bio-composites

The paper focuses on the influence of alkali treatment on the mechanical properties of biocomposites made from poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and guineacorn husks particulates (GHP) with respect to that of the untreated (untrd) biocomposites. The composites were prepared using a single screw extruder and a...
