The addition of natural fibers to polymers represents an alternative in the partial or total replacement of glass fibers in composites. In this work, carnauba leaf fibers were used in the production of biodegradable composites with polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) matrix. To improve the interfacial properties fiber / matrix were studied four chemical treatments to the fibers..The effect of the different chemical treatments on the morphological, physical, chemical and mechanical properties of the fibers and composites were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, tensile and flexural tests, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), thermogravimetry (TGA) and diferential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results of tensile tests indicated an increase in tensile strength of the composites after the chemical treatment of the fibers, with best results for the hydrogen peroxide treated fibers, even though the tensile strength of fibers was slightly reduced. This suggests a better interaction fiber/matrix which was also observed by SEM fractographs. The glass transition temperature (Tg) was reduced for all composites compared to the pure polymer which can be attributed to the absorption of solvents, moisture and other low molecular weight molecules by the fibers / O uso de mat?rias-primas de fontes renov?veis para a produ??o de materiais vem sendo objeto de diversos estudos e pesquisas, devido ao seu potencial na substitui??o de derivados petroqu?micos. A adi??o de fibras vegetais a pol?meros representa uma alternativa na substitui??o parcial ou total de fibras de vidro em comp?sitos. Neste trabalho, fibras da folha de carna?ba (Copernicia prun?fera) foram utilizadas na produ??o de comp?sitos biodegrad?veis com matriz de polihidroxibutirato (PHB). Para melhorar as propriedades interfaciais fibra/matriz foram estudados quatro tratamentos qu?micos, para as fibras. O efeito dos diferentes tratamentos qu?micos nas propriedades morfol?gicas, f?sicas, qu?micas e mec?nicas das fibras e dos comp?sitos foram investigados por microscopia eletr?nica de varredura (MEV), espectroscopia no infravermelho, difra??o de raios-X, ensaios mec?nicos de tra??o e flex?o, an?lise din?mico-mec?nica (DMA) e an?lises t?rmicas por termogravimetria (TG) e calorimetria explorat?ria diferencial (DSC). Os resultados dos ensaios de tra??o dos comp?sitos indicaram um acr?scimo de resist?ncia ? tra??o ap?s modifica??o qu?mica das fibras, sendo o melhor resultado obtido com o tratamento de per?xido de hidrog?nio, mesmo havendo uma pequena redu??o na resist?ncia ? tra??o das fibras tratadas. Isto indica uma melhor intera??o entre as fibras e a matriz polim?rica que foi tamb?m observada nas imagens de microscopia eletr?nica de varredura. A temperatura de transi??o v?trea (Tg) foi reduzida para todos os comp?sitos em rela??o ao pol?mero puro o que foi atribu?do a absor??o de solventes, umidade e outras mol?culas de baixo peso molecular pelas fibras
