Abstract
In recent years, biodegradable and eco-friendly composites have gained popularity. Using the hot moulding technique, biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) biocomposites reinforced with waste silk fibre were fabricated in this paper. They also underwent a variety of mechanical tests like tensile strength and modulus. While not surface-treated, the waste silk fibre reinforced PLA matrix bio composites mechanical properties. The fibre content of 30 wt per cent is optimal for achieving superior properties. Owing to the reinforcing effect of silk fibres, the quasi-static mechanical properties of waste silk fibre/PLA bio composites were enhanced.
