Abstract
⺠Composites made with extracted bagasse had higher water absorption (WA) and thickness swelling (TS) values. ⺠TS of samples showed a similar pattern to the water uptake data. ⺠As the bagasse content was increased, significant increased in WA and TS occurred. ⺠The difference in WA between extracted and unextracted composites is due to blocking of -OH groups by extractives.
