After thermoplastic modification of industrial corn starch with glycerol, composite materials were prepared using fiber reinforced thermoplastic corn starch obtained from sisal and hemp, respectively. It was found that the addition of sisal and hemp fibers increased the glass transition temperature (Tg) of thermoplastic corn starch, enhanced its rigidity, and did not significantly change its mechanical properties. In addition, adding natural latex to the composite material for plasticization modification resulted in a decrease in water absorption of the composite material, with no significant impact on its thermal stability and mechanical properties.
