Effect of acid hydrolysis treated pineapple fiber in plasticized polylactic acid composite

Pineapple leaf is a residue mainly from pineapple food industry which is causing environmental problems by its lack of proper waste disposal method. Therefore, it can be utilized as filler for the reinforcement of PLA which is brittle in nature. Treated fiber from pineapple leaf fiber (PALF) was d...
