Improving the performance of polypropylene matrix composite materials using engineered hemp fibre mats
… reinforced with hemp fibre mats produced using dynamic sheet forming (DSF) to align the short fibres used in the mats. The overall aim of this research was to improve the mechanical performance of hemp fibre mats produced using DSF and to assess the potential of these mats as reinforcement in …

Harakeke fibre as reinforcement in epoxy matrix composites and its hybridisation with hemp fibre
… Short and long fibres were aligned using dynamic sheet forming and manual carding, respectively. Composites were produced using hand lay-up and compression moulding. The physical and mechanical properties of fibres and composites were tested following ASTM and ISO standards. The surfaces …

The Influence of Fibre Processing and Treatments on Hemp Fibre/Epoxy and Hemp Fibre/PLA Composites
In recent years, due to growing environmental awareness, considerable attention has been given to the development and production of natural fibre reinforced polymer (both thermoset and thermoplastic) composites. The main objective of this study was to reinforce epoxy and polylactic acid (PLA) with …
