Abstract
Regenerated cellulose (RC) biocomposite films from Nypa Fruticans Fiber (NFF) and microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) were prepared by dissolving cellulose in lithium chloride (LiCl) and dimethylacetamide (DMAc). The effect of NFF content on tensile properties and X-ray diffraction were studied. The results found that the tensile strength and Young’s modulus of RC biocomposite films increased from 1 wt% to 3 wt% of NFF content and decreased at 4 wt% of NFF content. The elongation at break of RC biocomposite films decreased with increases NFF content. The crystallinity of RC biocomposite films also showed the highest crystallinity at 3 wt% of NFF content.
