Minyak kacang soya terepoksida (ESO) dipilih sebagai pemplastik bagi komposit PLA/SCBF. Demi mengkaji kesan saiz gentian terhadap sifat-sifat komposit PLA, SCBF yang dirawat alkali (~5 mm) telah dihancurkan ke dalam bentuk serbuk dan dinamakan SCBFP (~500 μm).

Poly(lactic acid)/sugarcane bagasse fiber (PLA/SCBF) composites were prepared using melt compounding followed by compression molding. Epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) was selected as plasticizer for the PLA/SCBF composites. In order to study the effect of fiber size on the properties of PLA composites, alkali treated SCBF (5 mm length) was grounded into powder form and designated as SCBFP (~500 μm).
