Thermal and Mechanical Properties of the Biocomposites of <i>Miscanthus</i> Biocarbon and Poly(3-<i>H</i>ydroxybutyrate-<i>co</i>-3-<i>H</i>ydroxyvalerate) (PHBV)

<i>Miscanthus</i> biocarbon (MB), a renewable resource-based, carbon-rich material, was melt-processed with poly (3-hydroxybutyrate-<i>co</i>-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) to produce sustainable biocomposites. The addition of the biocarbon improved the Young’s modulus of PHBV fro...
