Numerical modelling of flax short fibre reinforced and flax fibre fabric reinforced polymer composites [PDF]

open access: yesComposites Part B: Engineering, 2016
Abstract The ever-increasing demand of flax short fibre-reinforced and flax fibre fabric-reinforced polymer composites in various engineering applications calls for accurate predictions of their mechanical behaviors. In this study, numerical methods to generate and simulate mechanical properties of flax short fibre-reinforced and flax fibre fabric ...

Influence of the Physical Structure of Flax Fibres on the Mechanical Properties of Flax Fibre Reinforced Polypropylene Composites [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Composite Materials, 2000
This study investigates the influence of the physical structure of flax fibres on the mechanical properties of polypropylene (PP) composites. Due to their composite-like structure, flax fibres have relatively weak lateral bonds which are in particular present in flax fibres that are often used in natural fibre mat reinforced thermoplastics (NMT). These

Flax fibre and its composites – A review

Composites Part B: Engineering, 2014
In recent years, the use of flax fibres as reinforcement in composites has gained popularity due to an increasing requirement for developing sustainable materials. Flax fibres are cost-effective and offer specific mechanical properties comparable to those of glass fibres.

Impact of natural variability of flax fibres properties on mechanical behaviour of short-flax-fibre-reinforced polypropylene [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Materials Science, 2015
Short-flax-fibre-composite materials are appealing for technical applications thanks to renewability, biodegradability but also potentially high ratio rigidity/density of flax fibres, in particular. However, the significant variability of technical flax fibres’ constitutive, geometrical and mechanical properties and especially lack of quantitative ...
