  1. 1. Reactive extrusion of wood-thermoplastic composites

    Author : Göran Grubbström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Trä och bionanokompositer; Wood and Bionanocomposites;

    Abstract : The interest in Wood-thermoplastic composites (WPCs) has increased during the last decades. WPCs are commonly used as building material for decking and railing because of its low need of maintenance. Wood is a renewable resource of good mechanical properties and this make wood fibers interesting to use as reinforcement in a thermoplastic composite. READ MORE

  2. 2. Improved properties of thermoplastic wood flour composites

    Author : Kristiina Oksman; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Trä och bionanokompositer; Wood and Bionanocomposites; Träteknik; Wood Technology;

    Abstract : In this study the properties of composites made of wood flour and thermoplastics have been investigated. In order to improve the interfacial adhesion between hydrophobic and nonpolar thermoplastics and hydrophilic and polar wood flour different additives have been used as compatibilizers in composites systems.

  3. 3. High Performance Bio-based Composites : Mechanical and Environmental Durability

    Author : Newsha Doroudgarian; Kristofer Gamstedt; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymeric Composite Materials; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial;

    Abstract : The presented work is a part of the ongoing effort on the development of high performance bio-based composites with enhanced durability, under static and dynamic mechanical loading including the exposure to elevated humidity. The impact of relative humidity on the performance of cellulosic fibers (natural and regenerated), bio-based resins and their composites was studied. READ MORE

  4. 4. Processing and properties of silane crosslinked wood-polyethylene composites

    Author : Göran Grubbström; Kristofer Gamstedt; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Trä och bionanokompositer; Wood and Bionanocomposites;

    Abstract : Utilizing wood as filler and reinforcement in thermoplastic polymer-matrix composites, has gained interest during the last decades, mainly as profile extruded exterior building products such as deck boards, railings, and door- and window frame components. This thesis deals with silane-crosslinking of wood-polyethylene composites through reactiveextrusion. READ MORE
