Abstract

The paper reviews the latest trends in the field of thermoplastic
composites with natural fibres. The most important advantages
and limitations of their use are specified, as well as possible
processing and recovery procedures. Taking the example of
thermoplastic composite with wood fibres, the influence of
recycling on the mechanical properties of the composite is
reviewed.
