Biopolymers have been used as a replacement material for synthetic polymers in scaffold
forming due to its biocompatibility and nontoxic properties. Production of scaffold for tissue …

Over the past decades, the use of plant fibre reinforced composites has increased
significantly due to their many attractive attributes such as high specific strength and …

In the context of raw materials valorization, reducing pollution and producing more energy,
the world is undergoing a revolutionary shift towards biodegradable materials. Biosourced …

Flax shives (FS) represent approximately 50% in weight of dry flax stems, making it the main
