Abstract
This paper reports the fabrication process for a new composite of modified polyhydroxyalkanoate (MPHA), treated renewable pineapple leaf fiber (PLF), and waste oyster shell powder (OSP), with antibacterial, cytocompatibility, and biodegradability properties. PLF and OSP were thermally processed in a solar energy tube as a filler for MPHA-based green composites. The compositions and structures of composites were characterized using Fourier...
