| Résumé : |
Natural fibers are rapidly emerging in composites applications where glass fibers (predominantly E-
glass) have been traditionally used. This is particularly true within the automotive and construction
industries. These natural fibers provide several benefits: low cost, “green” availability, lower densities,
recyclable, biodegradable, moderate mechanical properties, abundant. Their uses have found entry
into booth the thermoset and thermoplastic composites market places. Industries are rapidly learning
how to effectively process these natural resources and use them in numerous composites applications. Typically they are used with well-recognized thermoset resin families: polyesters, vinyl esters
and epoxies. Thermoplastics resin matrices also are those commonly seen within the commercial
markets: polypropylene, low density polyethylene (LDPE), high density polyethylene (HDPE), polystyrene, Nylon 6 and Nylon 6,6 systems. Soy-based resin systems also are coming into vogue in some applications as we learn more about its chemistry and processing. Natural fiber systems tend to fall
into several categories as noted in Table 1, with the most commonly used ones noted in bold type. |
