Isolation and characterization of agro-waste biomass sapodilla seeds as reinforcement in potential polymer composite applications

Fillers or particulate fillers find a growing utilization as reinforcement material in polymer composites due to their ability enhance the properties of ensuing composites. The discarded seed sapodilla fruit is available abundant and shell can be used reinforcing filler. primary goal this study extract characterize powder (SSS) physically chemically order assess its potential for filler was characterized experimentally by Physio-chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) Energy dispersive analysis (EDAX). morphology size were determined Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) Particle analysis. thermal degradation behaviour evaluated Thermogravimetric (TGA).
