The study investigated the effect of durian skin fibre loading on the mechanical properties of durian skin fibre (DSF) composites. DSF are cellulose-based fibres extracted from durian skin. The fibre content in the composites in this study was varied from 10 to 70 vol % of fibre loading. Increasing DSF content in the matrix (LLDPE-Eco) has reduced the tensile strength and impact of the composites meanwhile the flexural modulus increased up to 60% fibre loading. Morphological study observed by Scanning Electron Microscope showed that the interaction between DSF and matrix was poor which contributed to the reduction in the composite properties.
