Abstract
⺠Newly identified Sterculia urens uniaxial fabrics used as a reinforcement. ⺠Sterculia urens uniaxial fabric reinforced poly (lactic acid) (PLA) biocomposites were prepared by a two-roll mill. ⺠Treatment on Sterculia urens uniaxial fabrics improved the mechanical and thermal properties of biocomposites. ⺠SEM of fractured surfaces treated with silane-coupling agent biocomposites showed flower-like structure. ⺠PLA/Sterculia urens uniaxial fabric reinforced biocomposites with excellent engineering properties useful for food packaging.
