    University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

    Author : Arvid Hedin; Anna Kudinova; Linnea Masso; [2022]
    Keywords : Wood Polymer Composite; WPC; Relative Humidity; RH; Tensile Testing; Polypropene; FibraQ; Wood Fiber; Surface Treatment; Mechanical Properties;

    Abstract : The project aims to develop a methodology to study the variation in properties of wood polymer composites (WPC’s) with/without surface treatment at different humidity conditions. The project aims to investigate the behavior of biocomposites at 50%, 80%and 100% relative humidity (RH). READ MORE

  2. 2. Comparative Life Cycle Assessments of Conventional Products and 3D-Printed Wood-Plastic Composite Alternatives

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Sangho Kim; [2020]
    Keywords : Life cycle assessment; Wood-plastic composite; Additive manufacturing; 3D printing; Environmental impact; Global warming; Livscykelanalys; Träplastkomposit; Additive tillverkningsteknik; Friformsframställning; Miljöpåverkan; Global uppvärmning;

    Abstract : As additive manufacturing gains market potential as a mainstream process in various sectors of industry, there is a growing need for addressing environmental aspects of this technology and the materials associated with it. In this master thesis, comparative life cycle assessments (LCAs) from cradle to grave between the conventional products and 3D-printed alternatives made of wood-plastic composite (WPC) were conducted based on the ISO 14044:2006 standard.
