This current research reports the characterization of fibers from Posidonia oceanica L. (P. oceanica) for the interest in usability as additive biomaterial in polymer-based materials. The results revealed that cellulose content, density, and average fiber diameter of the fibers from P. oceanica were 45.35%, 1.15 g/cm3 and 238.41 μm, respectively. The maximum degradation temperature, char yield and activations energy were found to be 318.8 ºC, 31.82% 600 ºC and 49.36 kJ/mol, respectively. Considering the output of this current research, the fibers from P. oceanica can be employed as reinforcement or additive for polymeric based materials for potential applications.
