Natural Fiber Reinforced PLA Composites
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2010We investigated the physical properties of natural fiber reinforced PLA composites, which were prepared by using PLA films and fibers. The impact, tensile, and dynamic mechanical properties of the composites were observed to examine the reinforcing effect of natural fibers.
