INTERFACES IN FLAX FIBRE-POLYMER COMPOSITES

open access: yes, 1999
This paper aims to study the interface of flax fibre reinforced composites based on different matrices (thermoplastic or thermosetting) according to the Kelly-Tyson model using the pull-out test. Pull-out tests of two types of single flax fibres: untreated Green and treated Duralin embedded in different polymer matrices: unsaturated polyester, epoxy ...

Applications of Textile Waste as Reinforcement in Fiber‐Reinforced Polymer Composites for Circularity—A Review

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 8, August 2026.
This review highlights the utilisation of textile waste in fibre‐reinforced polymer composites to reduce environmental impacts of pre‐ and post‐consumer textile waste. It critically examines waste composites’ manufacturing processes, their structural details, mechanical, thermal, physical properties, while discussing chemical treatments, hybridization ...

Kink-bands as drivers of hygroscopic response in flax fibres: A multi-scale investigation

open access: yesIndustrial Crops and Products
Flax fibres are increasingly explored as sustainable reinforcements in high-performance composites due to their remarkable stiffness and strength. However, their hygroscopic nature and complex hierarchical organisation pose challenges for dimensional ...

Characterisation of the mechanical and thermal degradation behaviour of natural fibres for lightweight automotive applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
It is well established that light-weighting of automotive parts leads to reduced carbon emissions over vehicle lifetime. Mineral fibres and fillers have a relatively high density and may require high levels of energy in their production, resulting in a ...
