• Abaca fibre reinforced PP composites and comparison with jute and flax fibre PP composites (2007, background): “In our previous work [20], it was found that the coupling agent MAH-PP showed best performance in the concentration of 5 wt% of the natural fibre and wood fibre-PP composites.”
• Reinforcing mechanisms of natural fibers in green composites: Role of fibers morphology in a PLA/hemp model system (2019, background): “Compatibilization strategies pursued to date act on the matrix side by using suitable coupling agents [10], often in the form of maleic anhydride modified polyolefins, and on the fiber side by considering chemical or physical modifications of the fibers surface [12].”
