Abstract:
A bamboo fibers reinforced polypropylene composition may include at least 50 wt % of a heterophasic propylene copolymer; from 2 to 40 wt % of bamboo fibers; and from 0.1 to 10 wt % of a coupling agent. The composition may show a melt flow index that is at least 5 g/10 min at 190° C. under a load of 2.16 kg according to ISO 1133, condition L; a density that is in the range of 0.900 and 1.010 g/cm3 according to ISO 1183; and a flexural modulus is in the range of 1100 MPa and 4000 MPa according to ISO 178. The composition may be prepared by mixing and kneading, and may be used to form articles.
