A NEW BIODEGRADABLE BIOPLASTIC TERNARY BLEND AS NEW MATRIX SYSTEM FOR BIOCOMPOSITE USES

摘要

Recently, advanced polymeric materials from biopolymers derived from natural resources have attracted great interest due to the growing concern over environmental issues and limited petroleum resources. Especially in recent years, great efforts have been made in developing high performance bioplastic based blends and composites from renewable resources for use in applications for commercial product [1, 2]. One of the most promising and important research areas is developing biocomposites from bioplastic and nature fiber [1]. Combined bioplolymer with low cost nature fiber provide us new eco-friendly materials with attractive benefits such as biodegradability, value-added for natural products, high modulus and light weight, which exhibits a prospect of much wider application such as automotive parts and electronic products [1].
