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 ...

Effective Use of Flax Biomass in Biorefining Processes

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Flax is one of the few plants that are entirely a source of raw materials for further production. Promising directions for the use of flax biomass may be the production of bioenergy in the form of 2G biofuels and the production of “green” composites. The

Utilization of Festuca arundinacea Schreb. Biomass with Different Salt Contents for Bioethanol and Biocomposite Production

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Soil salinity is one of the particularly important environmental factors, which limits the growth and development of plants, reduces the amount of crops and causes serious economic damage. The study found that Festuca arundinacea can be successfully used
