Production, Characterization And Mechanical Evaluation Of Biocomposite Based On Banana Pseudostem Fibre And Agar

The study was conducted to develop a method of making biocomposite boards based on banana pseudostem fibre and agar. Banana pseudostem fibre and agar were both grounded to powder form. Fibre and agar mixtures of various ratios (100:0, 90:10, 80:20, 70:30, 60:40, 50:50, 40:60, 30:70, 20:80, 10:90 and...
