Polypropylene-based cork-polymer composites: processing parameters and properties

Cork-polymer composites are one of the most promising fields of cork technology to create materials for a sustainable development. In this work, cork particles and powder were compounded with polypropylene (PP) by twin-screw extrusion and further processed by injection or compression moulding. The o...
