Synopsis

This practical course enables students to analyse and understand the mechanical, physical, thermal, and fundamental identification characterisation of fibres raw materials, include thermosets and thermoplastics matrices. Chemical modification of lignocellulosic (solid wood and plant fibres) will be prepared and analysed. Production of conventional biocomposites, thermoplastics, and thermosets (filled/reinforced) composites will be produced and characterised.
