2 Approaches for Plastics Completely Made from Natural Resources [Pg.90]

Natural fibres show many advantages over glass fibres when used as reinforcement of synthetic polymers (see Table 5.1) the relatively high density of glass fibres 2.5 g/cm ) compared to cellulose or ligno-cellulose fibres of 1.5 g/cm makes lightweight applications possible. [Pg.90]

Composites from natural fibres have not yet been fully established in high-tech industry because a sufficient quality for engineering applications is not adequately offered (e.g. by Natural Fiber Composites Inc. and North Wood Plastics). Fibres are available from many plants (highlighted of high quality) for example, wood, abaca, coir, cotton, flax, hemp, henequen, istle, jute, kenaf, ramie, sisal or sunn. [Pg.90]
