Characterization of nanocomposites based on plasticized starch and kenaf bast nanofibers
Plants cell walls are biological nanocomposites which exhibit high mechanical properties at a light weight. The secret of this rigidity and strength lies in its main structural component; cellulose. Native cellulose exists as highly-ordered microfibrils, which are just a few nanometers wide and hav...
