    Author : Andreas Bengtsson; Monica Ek; Maria Sedin; Elisabet Brännvall; Elisabeth Sjöholm; Johannes Ganster; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Carbon fiber; Carbonization; Cellulose; Kraft pulp; Softwood kraft lignin; Solution spinning; Stabilization; Barrvedslignin; Cellulosa; Karbonisering; Kolfiber; Lösningsmedelsspinning; Stabilisering; Sulfatmassa; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Carbon fibers (CFs) have excellent mechanical properties and a low density, making themattractive as a reinforcing fiber in composites. The use of CFs is limited to high-end applications,since they are produced from an expensive fossil-based precursor via an energy-intensivemanufacturing process, explaining the need for cheaper CFs from renewables.

  2. 2. Wood fiber composites : processing, structure and properties

    Author : Lars-Olof Nordin; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial; Polymeric Composite Materials;

    Abstract : The goal of this work has been to investigate how to make wood polymer composite materials with good mechanical properties, which also could be tailored for different applications. The fundamental idea behind the work was that good mechanical properties of the composite material require that the stiffness and strength of the wood cell wall material are really utilized.

  3. 3. Wood fiber composites : from processing and structure to mechanical performance

    Author : Lars-Olof Nordin; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial; Polymeric Composite Materials;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis has been focused on the mechanical properties of wood fiber composites. One goal has been to investigate the processing of wood polymer composite materials with good mechanical properties, and how to tailor these properties for different applications. READ MORE

  4. 4. Natural fiber composites : optimization of microstructure and processing parameters

    Author : Birgitha Nyström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymeric Composite Materials; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial;

    Abstract : Natural fiber composites, (NFC) are defined in this work as a group of materials where at least the fibers originates from renewable and CO2 neutral resources. NFC consists of a polymer matrix and a natural fiber. The fibers which originate from wood or plants can replace non-renewable fibers or fillers or simply replace part of the plastic. READ MORE

  5. 5. High-Performance Composites from Modified Wood Fiber

    Author : Mats Westin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Kraft lignin; fiberboard; lignocellulosic fiber; durability; wood fiber; mechanical properties; dimensional stability; decay resistance; acetylation; composite;

    Abstract : The objective of this work was to produce and evaluate high-performance wood fiber composites. High-performance was defined as: high dimensional stability and a high durability, including resistance to wood-decaying organisms (fungi, bacteria, and insects). READ MORE
