Abstract:Numerous environmental problems have arisen due to excessive production and consumption of non-renewable polymers. Thus, some strategies have been developed to mitigate the impacts, including degradable biopolymers,PBS, and ECOVIO, whose properties are improved by adding vegetable fibers. This work aims to obtain composites whose biopolymeric matrix will be reinforced with coffee residues and to evaluate their mechanical properties. The methodology consisted of drying, extrusion, dehumidification, injection, a… Show more
