ABSTRACT |
Green organic coupling agent is kind of glycidyl fatty acid made from fatty acid of virgin coconut oil. The green coupling agent is highly effective coupling agent for agro-waste plastic composites, instance of expensive synthetic coupling agent which is commonly used. The green coupling agent is reactive toward the hydroxyl group of agro-waste by forming ester bonding. The green coupling agent is inexpensive and made from sustainable resource. The used of green coupling agent will improve the wettability, filler dispersion and interfacial bonding between agro-waste filler and plastic composites.
