The aim is to develop bio-based polyester (in collaboration with researchers from University of Oulu) and select appropriate natural fibers from cellulose origin as reinforcement design high performance environmentally friendly composite materials. Once constituents are selected the composites will be manufactured and characterized. After theoretical design of the composites the manufacturing of unidirectional and cross-ply laminates will be pursued from the selected constituents.
Treesearch aims at creating a national platform to support the research on new materials from the forest. Research projects conducted within Treesearch research areas and the researchers who are active in these projects are welcome to join the platform.
