Studies of the processing and characterization of corn starch and its composites with banana and sugarcane fibers from Brazil. (2010, methodology): “Glycerol was also used to improve the processability and mechanical properties of the composites, in addition to reducing their glass transition temperature (Fang & Fowler, 2003; Rodriguez-Gonzalez et al., 2003; Chen et al., 2006; Huang et al., 2006; Stepto, 2006; Tserki et al., 2006).”
Kenaf fiber reinforced composites: A review (2011, background): “The main disadvantage encountered during the addition of natural fibers, including kenaf fiber into a polymer matrix, is the lack of good interfacial adhesion between the two components, which results in poor properties in the final product [32–34].”
