  • METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A STIFF ENGINEERED COMPOSITE
    Publication number: 20230219265
    Abstract: The method of making a compressed biocomposite body includes compressing a mass of biocomposite material comprised of discrete particles and a network of interconnected glucan-containing mycelia cells in the presence of heat and moisture into a compressed body having a density in excess of 18 pcf. Compression may take place batch wise in a press or continuously in a path of narrowing cross-section defined by a series of heated rollers.
    Type: Application
    Filed: August 19, 2022
