Acoustical, thermal, and morphological properties of zein reinforced oil palm empty fruit bunch fiber bio-composites

In this research, biodegradable composites were prepared with zein as a polymer matrix and oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) as fiber reinforcement. The fibers were treated with sodium hydroxide (NaOH). The effects of sodium hydroxide treatment on sound absorption, thermal stability, and fiber-poly...
