Issue Date: | Jul-2020 | Journal: | IIUM Engineering Journal | Abstract: | The initial phase of this study was to investigate the effect of polypropylene carbonate (PPC) additions in polylactic acid (PLA)/curcumin (Cur) blends. It was observed that the presence of curcumin particulates behaved as a reinforcement filler for PPC additions up to 30 wt%. A specific composition was then invested to find the correlation between the fiber diameter and melt-spinning process parameters using central composite design (CCD), a subset of response surface methodology (RSM). Results showed that the spinning temperature had a greater effect than the spinning speed on the diameter of PLA/PPC/curcumin fiber. The response model indicated a good correlation between experimental and predicted values since the ANOVA analysis demonstrated high Fvalue of model adequacy at 10.34, non-significant lack of fit, precision adequacy of 9.94 and R 2 value of 0.80. Therefore, this model can be used in a future study to establish the processing parameters for controlled fiber production. | URI: | http://dspace.uniten.edu.my/jspui/handle/123456789/15182 |
