In the construction industry, wood has been the primary choice for building materials. However, in recent years, a few alternatives have been developed; composites are becoming one of the most popular wood alternatives in the market.But the question is, how does it compare to real lumber when ...
Wood is a complex composite polymer, composed of approximately 60% to 80% carbohydrates (cellulose and hemicelluloses), approximately 20% to 30% lignin (phenolic substances) and a few percent of various extractable. From: Biopolymers and Biocomposites from Agro-Waste for Packaging Applications, 2021...
Similar to WPCs, so-called engineered wood composed of wood flour/fibers is used for veneers, such as plywood. These have various advantages that include: • They can control deforestation because, instead of cutting down trees, wood fibers and wood flour obtained from wood wastes can be use...
Natural composites exist in both animals and plants. Wood is a composite – it is made from long cellulose fibres (a polymer) held together by a much weaker substance called lignin. Cellulose is also found in cotton, but without the lignin to bind it together it is much weaker. The ...
The Advanced Composite Materials Market size is estimated at USD 2.32 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 3.28 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of greater than 6% during the forecast period (2024-2029). The COVID-19 pandemic had negatively impacted the market for advanced compo...

The results of the tests were compared with those for the solid wood specimens, and it was found that new composite building materials with high mechanical strength and lower cost could be produced for the construction materials sector in Turkey instead of solid wood. 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc...
The moisture-induced shape memory effect (SME) is one of the most intriguing phenomena of wood, where wood can stably retain a certain deformed shape and, upon moisture sorption, can recover the original shape. Despite the long history of wood utilizatio
