Abstract PLA composites containing biomass fillers from the three herbaceous plants such as reed, wheat stalk, and coconut fiber with length and diameter at the scale of several millimeters were prepared without using additives. The
reinforcement effect on the properties of PLA/biomass filler composites is investigated. The research results show
that the PLA/biomass filler composites exhibit good stiffness, flexural strength, and impact toughness. Among the
three kinds of biomass fillers, reed reinforced PLA composites show optimal mechanical properties. When filled
with 40%–50% reed, the flexural moduli of the composites are over 7000 MPa. Flexural strength retains More >
