Abstract: This research was aimed to study the effect of banana leaf fiber (BF) on mechanical properties of polypropylene (PP) and high density polyethylene (HDPE) filament. The selected ratio of 70:30 wt/wt PP/HDPE was reinforced by BF at 3, 4 and 5 %wt. BF particle size was 75 micron. Surface of BF was modified by using sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and vinyltrimethoxysilane. The components were compounded in twin screw extruder. Extrudates were produced by single screw extruder and then the filaments were drawn using wind up speed at 25 and 50 m/min. From the FTIR and SEM results indicated the improvement of adhesion between BF and PP matrix by both NaOH and silane. Comparatively, the addition of silane treated BF surface into PP/HDPE filament had higher tensile strength, young’s modulus and elongation at break than the one of modified BF surface using sodium hydroxide and unmodified BF, respectively. In term of fiber loading effect, PP/HDPE filament with higher BF content would reduce the tensile strength and the young’s modulus with the increment of elongation at break.
