Abstract
The present invention relates to a process for the manufacture of a lignocellulosic fibre-based composite material comprising the steps of: obtaining a fibrous mix (S1) comprising a defibrated lignocellulosic material and defibrated plant seeds; blending the fibrous mix with a resin (S2) to form a composite mixture; and curing (S3) the composite mixture, thereby forming the lignocellulosic fibre-based composite material. A preferred application of this process is the manufacture of fibreboards, such as MDF.
Claims19
A process for the manufacture of a lignocellulosic fiber-based composite material comprising the steps of:
- obtaining a fibrous mix comprising a defibrated lignocellulosic material and defibrated plant seeds, wherein the plant seeds have a protein content ranging from 15% to 60% w/w dry matter;
- blending the fibrous mix with a resin to form a composite mixture;
- and
- curing the composite mixture, thereby forming the lignocellulosic fiber-based composite material.
A fibrous mix comprising lignocellulosic material fibers and defibrated plant seeds, wherein the weight ratio of lignocellulosic material to plant seeds is comprised between 40:60 and 99:1, and wherein the plant seeds have a protein content ranging from 15% to 60% w/w dry matter.
