Flax/PP and Flax/PLA Thermoplastic Composites: Influence of Fire Retardants on the Individual Components
This study is based on previously reported reaction to fire properties of flax fibre-reinforced polymeric (polypropylene, PP and polylactic acid, PLA) composites, prepared by pre-treating the fabrics with different fire retardants (FRs) prior to composite preparation. It was observed that while all...
