Abstract: The present invention provides composite material compositions using waste synthetic fiber released from fiber-related factories or general households. In an embodiment of the present invention, a thermoplastic synthetic resin may be incorporated with plasticizer(s), lubricant(s), and other additive(s), the mixture being molten and then kneaded with waste synthetic fiber which had been fibrillated into filaments, whereby said waste synthetic fiber is impregnated with the molten resin liquid to form a composite material composition. The present invention can thus provide inexpensive composite material compositions having excellent mechanical properties by making use of waste synthetic fiber which has been junked as waste so far, and lessening the rate of use of synthetic resins.

Abstract: A polyolefin resin composition having superior strength, rigidity, workability, dimensional stability, etc. is provided by blending 0.3 to 4.0% by weight of at least one member selected from rosins, similar materials to rosins, derived therefrom, petroleum resins and mixtures of the foregoing members, 0.5 to 4.0% by weight of a plasticizer and 15 to 60% by weight on dry basis, of finely ground vegetable fibers to a polyolefin resins or resins, all of the above percentages being based on the weight of the composition. Further, 1 to 30% by weight of an inorganic filler and/or 1 to 10% by weight of a synthetic rubber can be blended thereto.

Abstract: This invention provides composite material compositions comprising wastepaper, a thermoplastic resin and/or other additive(s), said compositions having higher heat resistance, flame retardancy and mechanical strength and smaller linear shrinkage in molding than the conventional compositions of synthetic resins alone or blended with woodmeal or an inorganic filler. There is also provided a method of producing said compositions comprising a wastepaper crushing step, a step of mixing crushed wastepaper with a thermoplastic resin and/or other additive(s) while drying said wastepaper, a blend melting step, a blend kneading step and a blend granulating step. In an embodiment of this invention, scraps of moldings from the composite material compositions using wastepaper may be mixed with wastepaper, a thermoplastic resin and/or other additive(s) and similarly treated and molded into a new composition.
