Thermoplastic composites with wood - a brief review
Keywords:
composites, wood, mechanical propertiesAbstract
Recently there has been a rapid growth in research and utilization of composites reinforced with wood flour and others types of natural fibers. The interest in this type of composite material is based on such advantages of these materials compared to others, such as synthetic fiber composites, including low environmental impact, low cost, recyclability, and applications in several industrial fields. Much effort has gone into increase their mechanical and thermal properties to extend a wide range of applications. This work aims to provide a brief overview of the composites materials with a focus on the composites reinforced with wood flour evaluating the factors that influence the mechanical performance of this type of material.
