Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the manufacture of structural hybrid thermoplastic composites where organic and inorganic fibres are well dispersed in a thermoplastic matrix. The process comprises defibrillating the organic fibres with or without the presence of surface active agents using a mixer at a high shear and at a temperature lower than the decomposition temperature of organic fibres and melting point of the surface active agents to separate the hydrogen bonded fibres and generate microfibres, followed by blending and dispersion of the organic fibres in the thermoplastic matrix to produce a fibre composite, followed by further blending and dispersion of the fibre composite with inorganic fibres at a low shear to get the moldable hybrid composite, followed by extrusion, injection or compression-injection molding. Low shear mixing maintains the inorganic fibre length. The process produces high performance composite materials having excellent performance properties and are ideally suited for automotive, aerospace, furniture, sports articles, upholstery and other structural and semi-structural applications.

Abstract:
A colored particle (e.g., a spherical particle) comprising an organic solid component (e.g., a polymer component) and a coloring agent (e.g., an oil-soluble dye, and an organic or inorganic pigment) is produced by eluting a water-soluble auxiliary component comprising at least an oligosaccharide from a composition having a disperse system, in which a particulate dispersed phase comprising the organic solid component and the coloring agent is dispersed in a matrix comprising the auxiliary component. The weight ratio of the polymer component relative to the auxiliary component may be about 55/45 to 1/99. The proportion of the coloring agent may be about 0.001 to 100 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the organic solid component. Such a process ensures conveniently and industrially advantageous production of a colored particle (e.g., a colored polymer particle) corresponding to the dispersed phase independently of affinity between the dispersed phase and the matrix.
