Modal Fabric Modal fiber is a new kind of regenerated cellulose fiber produced by FCFC (Formosa Chemicals & fiber Corporation)‚ called Formotex fiber. Its key advantage is its high tensile strength. Compared with Viscose‚ Its Wet/dry Tenacity is 1.5 times higher. Due to the high quality of the fiber‚ the resultant yarn is also of high quality. The definition stipulates minimum values concerning the wet modulus and fiber breaking resistance on fiber state. Modal fiber satisfies these requirements

Natural fibers have become new alternative materials that can replace petroleum-based plastic‚ either alone or combined with another material‚ to produce greener composite materials. One of the most important natural fibers is pineapple peel fiber. Pineapple peel fiber which have high content of cellulose‚ low density‚ abundance and low cost‚ have the potential for polymer reinforcement. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of corn starch film reinforced with Pineapple Peel fiber. Testing
