Green composites with natural fibers and epoxy resin

[@firozfaroque7521]

time to invent more biocomposites for different applications

[@TechnoComposites]

Where can i find technical datas about your green composites compared to conventional ones?

[@FearlessPassport]

Is this composite degradable, and what can this composite be used for?

[@michaelthorsby]

The binder used is epoxy, leave it in your garden for 10000 years and it'll still be there

[@simonmeszaros2770]

that means it is ecological. anyway there are bio alternatives to resins

[@runcycleskixc]

please ask your workers to wear respiratory protection while working with epoxy.

[@AndrewHelgeCox]

How much single use plastic was involved in making that one small sheet of material? Certainly the tape. The plastic tubes? They must get clogged with setting resin, right? The large sheet of plastic which was laid on top?

[@beatrix5353]

which natural fiber did you use?

[@Harsimran00001]

Hello can u name the bioresin

[@nischaysoni502]

How is that green after using epoxy, thats hazardous.

[@dhananjaygunjal1256]

Epoxy resin and hardner ratio ?

[@michaelthorsby]

Sorry but how is a composite green when you're dependent on epoxy, a virgin plastic, full of bisphenols and of course a product driving from the petrochemical industry. Find another binder or stop calling it green.

[@jerellonte9389]

What are the procedures to make natural composite?

[@magnuswootton6181]

use a natural resin.

[@evrik78]

Don't fool people, people. You can't state that your material is "green" when you're using epoxy resin, which is not recyclable.

[@BTurner6]

Exactly.

[@geraldcarino5009]

That is not the point. Decomposition speeds up if one raw material decomposes alot faster. After all it is called COMPOSITE. They did not say its entirely green.

[@dooflydetailguuy4349]

Technically carbon fiber is recycled plastic so CF is green too

[@michaelthorsby]

@@geraldcarino5009 no absolutely not, it might speed up the breakdown into microplastics, but that's all

[@giacomoneri1782]

​@grimfpv292I just wanted to see if i can replace a broken plastic part on my car with something handmade from old clothes and epoxy i had around. May not be "green" but it's useful to know i can use other cloths other than CF and GF.

[@therespectedlex9794]

Nice idea, but uses a lot of machinery, which I don’t understand.

[@danieldombai7267]

I think epoxy resin isnt green, even poisonous

[@anilsinghal4366]

With apoxy rasin the cost of natural composite is too high
