...Kraft fibres are good reinforcement for fibre composites

A study shows that normal kraft pulp fibres can offer high reinforcement capability and good mechanical properties for WPCs (wood plastic composites). The mechanical anchoring of kraft fibres to PA and PP matrixes was studied and the effects of refining and fractionation techniques were tested. It was found that mechanical treatments are not necessary when the softwood kraft pulp fibres are used in wood plastic composite applications.
