Abstract

This paper reports the fabrication process for a new composite of modified polyhydroxyalkanoate (MPHA), treated renewable pineapple leaf fiber (PLF), and waste oyster shell powder (OSP), with antibacterial, cytocompatibility, and biodegradability properties. PLF and OSP were thermally processed in a solar energy tube as a filler for MPHA-based green composites. The compositions and structures of composites were characterized using Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Tensile and morphological analyses revealed enhanced adhesion and improved compatibility between OSP/PLF and MPHA in composites, compared with polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA)/OSP/PLF composites. MTT assay and cell adhesion tests revealed that the relative growth rate of human foreskin fibroblasts cells increased with OSP/PLF content, indicating that the composites were not cytotoxic. OSP enhanced the antimicrobial properties of MPHA/OSP/PLF composites. PHA/OSP/PLF composites absorbed more water than MPHA/OSP/PLF composites. The weight loss of composites after being buried in soil compost indicated that both were biodegradable, especially at high levels of OSP/PLF substitution.
