Résumé : |
Strength, stiffness and heat resistance are characteristics of natural fibre in common with conventional fillers such as talc and glass fibre but an advantage of natural fibre is lightness. TABWD (Toyota Auto Body WooD) substitutes natural fibre for conventional fillers in order to reduce the weight of materials and components. In Japan, the main natural fibre resource is wood and in TABWD wood flour is used as filler for the fibre reinforced polymer. |
