Recent years have seen rapid growth in utilizing vegetable oils to derive a wide variety of
polymers to replace petroleum-based polymers for minimizing environmental impact …

Carbon fiber has been used to reinforce both aliphatic and aromatic polyamides. Aliphatic
polyamide is known as nylon and aromatic polyamide is often referred to as aramid. Among …

Biocomposites were produced using biobased polyamide (Bio-PA) and two different types of
fibers (aramid and basalt). The impact of artificial and mineral fibers on the mechanical …

The wider use of renewable feedstock in structural applications, where high mechanical
performance is required, can be achieved by the application of recently developed …

With regard to the sustainability and biological origin of plastic components, regenerated
cellulose fiber (RCF)-reinforced polymers are expected to replace other composites in the …

The effect of basalt and glass fibres and moisture on the impact strength, tensile mechanical
properties and heat resistance of PA 10.10 and PA 6 was examined. It was shown that PA …

Influence of lubricants such as montan waxes and fatty acid esters, on properties of glass
fiber reinforced composites based on polyamide 1010. Composites with 40% wt. glass fibers …

In the automotive industry, petrochemical plastics are widespread because glass and
carbon fiber-reinforced composites consist exclusively of petroleum-based matrix materials …

In the interest of establishing sustainable societies, the production of polymers from bio-
