• Mechanical and thermal properties of coconut shell powder filled polylactic acid biocomposites: effects of the filler content and silane coupling agent (2012, background): “However, the presence of highly polarized hydroxyl groups on the surfaces of the lignocellulosic fillers makes it difficult to achieve strong interfacial bonding with an apolar polymer matrix, as hydrogen bonds tend to hinder the wetting of the filler surfaces [11, 12].”
