Highlights
Composite materials have been known to mankind for thousands of years, and occur naturally in many living things
With the anticipation to improve the mechanical properties of the Wheat straw, we suggested infusing risen, protein colloid glues, inside the Wheat straw Lumina
The study focused on whole stems of Wheat straw which were reinforced with injection of the animal glue to improve the strength and crushing force of the Wheat straw
Summary
Composite materials have been known to mankind for thousands of years, and occur naturally in many living things. Recycled, carbon dioxide neutral, and are available in large quantities They have high specific properties and cause less health problems during handling when compared to glass fibers. Car weight reduction up to 35% is possible This can be translated into lower fuel consumption and the lower environmental impact. Natural fiber based composites offer good mechanical performance, good formability, high sound absorption, and cost savings due to low material costs. Their “Green look” as well as ecological and logistical benefits of the natural fiber based technologies looks more attractive. In 2000, more than 23,000 tons of natural fibers have been used in the automotive sector alone natural fibers in the automotive industry should experience a sustainable growth as EU regulations regarding recycling and “End of life vehicle” directives set car recycling targets to 95% by 2015 [7]
