POLYMERHEMP
PolymerHemp is a polymer science technology focused on composites made from renewable sources. A biocomposite is formed by a base matrix (resin) and reinforced by natural hemp fibers.
HEMP FIBER | BIOCOMPOSITE
Our environmentally friendly resins ideal for high strength, low respiratory irritation and equipment wea.
The renewable hemp fibers have low densities, low cost, high specific properties and their norvabrasive nature
have both economic and environmental benefit in automotive, building, funiture and packaging industries.
Material Integrity
The potentiality of natural plants in replacing traditional and mineral fillers as reinforcements in plastic matrix composites is in its infancy.
Much interest has been seen with biocomposites materials due to the significant rapid renewability of resources.
For example, as a non-renewable resource, glass fibers have been used for some time and since their inception, a number of limitations have been evident, such as high energy consumption, processing difficulties, poor recycling properties and poor degradability.
Furthermore, glass fiber particles have shown to cause environmental pollution and is a considerable health hazard.
Environmentally Friendly
Over the last few years, the interest of using natural fibers as reinforcing materials has increased significantly. Fibers are the reinforcing agent, of composite materials, that provide strength and stiffness to fiber-reinforced composite materials.
Significant improvements in tensile, flexural and izod properties of hemp filled polypropylene™We use these fibers to their fullest potential in our compounds”
BIODEGRADABLE LINE
Our biodegradable resin is very suitable to utilize as a natural non-abrasive reinforcement material in the polymer composite.
Hemp provides a durable strength and stiffness for reinforcement; owing to the strong hydrogen bonds.
In result, the composite matrices attributes to higher physical and mechanical properties.
