Positioning of a self-reinforced polyethylene in the industrial composites market

Self-reinforced composites combine lightness and increased recyclability than conventional composites. To position them within the industrial market (conventional composites) simultaneously highlight their potential in a given application context, it is necessary to analyze mechanical properties for possible exploitation. For this purpose, compression molding has been used manufacture different In short paper, specific tensile of polyethylene matrix reinforced with glass, carbon, flax, fabrics, respectively, are compared at room temperature. The results give an excellent perspective self-reinforced polyethylene.
