Abstract Scope |
Studies related to environmental solutions have increased every year. In this scenario, the use of residue materials such as wood chips and chamotte reinforcing a green, plant derived and biodegradable matrix can potentially represent a final destination to these wastes. Therefore, the present work investigated the influence of eucalyptus wood chips and chamotte both obtained as industrial waste in the making of castor oil derived polyurethane resin (COPU) matrix composites. The composites were made by reinforcing a COPU resin from75 up to 85 vol% of eucalyptus residue along with up to 10 vol% of chamotte in a room temperature mold under 10 ton pressure resulting in a composite made around 98% in volume from a pant and/or a residue. The composites made were subjected to flexural tests and water absorption. The results shows the good performance of the eucalyptus chips and chamotte waste as composites reinforcement. |
