The effect of processing parameters on the mechanical properties of vacuum formed flax fibre reinforced polypropylene composites

The main aim of this thesis is to gain an improved understanding of the use and limitations of flax fibres as a reinforcement for thermoplastic composites manufactured by the vacuum forming process. The effect of process variables on void content and on mechanical properties of flax fibre/polypropyl...
