Abstract

Composites are constantly studied with the aim of making these materials more efficient and more environmental friendly. With this second aim, vegetal fibers are commonly considered as substitutes of glass fibers in order to make eco-composite. However, when dealing with mechanical performances of composite, one of the main critical point is the filler/matrix interface. Nonetheless, vegetal fiber hydrophilicity does not allow the compatibility with hydrophobic polymers, which are the most frequently used. To solve this issue, the use of direct fluorination was investigated to modify the surface chemistry of lignocellulosic substrates, through a more environment-friendly way than “generic” methods (e.g. chemical or thermal treatment). Chemical modification, i.e. covalent grafting of fluorine atoms on the outmost surface of lignocellulosic material surface, has allowed to significantly increase the hydrophobicity of samples by reducing at 0 the polar component of the surface tension; this route makes it possible vegetal products to be compatibilized with hydrophobic polymers (e.g. polyethylene, polyethylene, polyester, etc.). This compatibilization allows to significantly increase the composite health and its mechanical properties because of a better load transfer between fillers and the matrix.
