The effect of wheat straw bleaching on some mechanical properties of wheat straw/LDPE biocomposites
Journal of Food and Bioprocess Engineering, 2020 Using biocomposites containing wheat straw (WS) and synthetic polymers like polyethylene (PE) has gained tremendous popularity, but its application in the packaging industry is not substantial. Due to the prevalence of raw WS color which manifests itself in the WS/LDPE biocomposite, the present investigation is dedicated to fabricate a bleached WS/LDPE
