Characterization and Properties of Treated Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch Regenerated Cellulose Biocomposite Films with Butyl Methacrylate Using Ionic Liquid

Abstract

Regenerated cellulose (RC) biocomposite films from oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) and microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) were prepared using N, NDimethylacetamide (DMAc) and Lithium Chloride (LiCl). The effects of OPEFB contents and Butyl methacrylate (BMA) on properties of RC biocomposite films were
