  1. 1. Mechanical behavior of a bio-based composite : influences of production conditions

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Author : Seyed Mazdak Hosseini Moghadam; Mohamed Alshihabi; [2016]
    Keywords : DuraPulp; polylactic acid PLA ; press time; load rate; mechanical properties; E-modulus; maximum strength.;

    Abstract : Some mechanical properties of DuraPulp, a bio-based, bio-degradable composite made from polylactic acid (PLA) and pulp fibers, were determined. Focus was put on the conditions during productions whereby three different press times were studied. Additionally, two different material compositions (PLA to fiber ratios) were used. READ MORE

    Abstract : Södra DuraPulp is a relatively new eco-composite, made from natural wood fibers and polylactic acid (PLA), which comes from corn starch. Until now, there are only few applications for DuraPulp, mainly in the area of design. To find new fields of application, more knowledge about its mechanical material properties are of great interest. READ MORE
