The palm oil industry has been continuing to help in mitigating poverty and drive socio-
economic growth through job opportunities and infrastructure development in the suburbs …

Oil palm biomass is widely known for its potential as a renewable resource for various value‐
added products due to its lignocellulosic content and availability. Oil palm biomass …

Thermoplastic starch (TPS) composites with oil palm mesocarp fiber waste were prepared
using compression molding. Oil palm mesocarp fiber (PC) was reduced to powder (MPC) by …

Thermoplastic starch (TPS) reinforced by 1 wt% nanofiber cellulose (NFC) reinforcing from
water hyacinth was produced. Ultrasonic vibration time (UVT) was applied to …

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were successfully isolated by hydrochloric acid hydrolysis
followed by ultrasonic homogenization of oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB), which are a …

In the present study, in order to improve the properties of nanostarch-based nanocomposite
film for food packaging, a type of nanocomposite film based on corn nanostarch (CNS) as …

Bionanocomposites based on a Yam Bean (Pachyrhizus spp.)(YB) starch matrix reinforced
by nanocellulose Water Hyacinth Fiber (WHF) were produced using a casting method. The …

The objective of this study was to obtain nanowhiskers from bleached and milled curaua
fibers. Nanowhiskers were obtained via a TEMPO system. TEM micrographies proved the …

Biobased products are a growing trend in industrial crops, but the natural variation among
the plant sources demands the development of efficient pretreatments for standardizing the …

Starch is an appealing natural polymer for the scaled‐up production of biodegradable
plastics. However, the low water resistance of starch has made its broad applicability largely …
