6.5. Hybrid Composites Combining Renewable and Fossil Materials
On the one hand, fossil matrices open the door to broad ranges of properties for composites reinforced with NFs. On the other hand, synthetic reinforcements allow obtaining better performances for renewable polymers.
6.5.1. Natural Fiber-Reinforced Fossil Polymers
The following displays some examples but many other products are proposed by producers, compounders, or are made in-house. PP is probably the fossilpolymer the most often combined with NFs. Grades mentioned in the following are only a few examples taken at random without commitment concerning their quality and suitability. These examples cannot cover all cases and the quoted company names, trademarks, and websites are provided ...
