  1. 1. Renewable Composites Prepared from Biobased Thermoset Resins

    Author : Dan Åkesson; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Renewable; natural fibre; composite; biobased thermoset resin;

    Abstract : In our efforts to create a more sustainable society, several researchers have tried to prepare composites from renewable materials in recent years. The use of natural fibres for reinforcement of composites has been relatively well studied. READ MORE

  2. 2. Development of biocomposites from lactic acid thermoset resins and cellulose fibre reinforcements

    Author : Fatimat Oluwatoyin Bakare; Minna Hakkarinen; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; lactic acid; thermoset resin; renewable resources; natural fibre; regenerated cellulose fibre; composite; Resursåtervinning; Resource Recovery;

    Abstract : Synthesis of polymers from renewable origin has been reported by many authors and it has been found out that it has enormous potential and can serve as alternative to conventional thermoplastics and thermosets in many applications. The use of these renewable resources will provide sustainable platforms to substitute fossil fuel-based materials. READ MORE

  3. 3. Carbon fibres from lignin-cellulose precursors
