  • Method for producing a thermodeformable polymer/fiber composite
    Patent number: 11859062
    Abstract: A process for producing a thermoformable polymer/fiber composite using a fibrous substrate, an organic di- or polyisocyanate compound and a dispersion polymer.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 12, 2019
    Date of Patent: January 2, 2024
    Assignee: BASF SE
    Inventors: Michael Kalbe, Mirko Flory, Rainer Scheidhauer, Hans Horler
  • Fiber molding
    Patent number: 11499021
    Abstract: A process for producing a thermoformable and/or -embossable fiber/polymer composite using a fibrous lignocellulosic substrate S and a polymer P, which contains i) homogeneously mixing the substrate S and the polymer P, then ii) converting the substrate S/polymer P mixture to a fiber web, and then iii) compacting the resultant fiber web at a temperature not less than the glass transition temperature of the polymer P [TgP] to give a thermoformable and/or -embossable fiber/polymer composite, wherein a) the substrate S comprises acetylated lignocellulosic fibers, and b) the polymer P is thermoplastic and has a TgP?20° C. The invention relates to a fiber/polymer molding obtainable by the process and a component in motor vehicle construction, in built structures and in furniture which contains the fiber/polymer molding.
