Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the manufacturing of composite materials from natural fibers and thermoplastic polymers. Examples of fibers are wood fibers originating from pulping processes known as refiner pulp (RMP), thermomechanical pulp (TMP) or chemi-thermomechanical pulp (CTMP), but the process can also be applied to other kinds of natural fiber containing raw materials. In the process according to the present invention, fibers are introduced from the blowline or the housing of a refiner into a flash tube dryer, separated from humid air in a cyclone, introduced into a compounder and mixed with at least one thermoplastic polymer and the product is subsequently pelletized. The process according to the present invention is advantageously run as a continuous process.

Abstract: An air-laid blank (10) comprises natural fibers at a concentration of at least 70% by weight of the air-laid blank (10) and a thermoplastic polymer binder at a concentration selected within an interval of from 2.5 up to 30% by weight of the air-laid blank (10). The air-laid blank (10) has an average density and a portion (11) of the air-laid blank (10) has a density different from the average density. The air-laid blank (10) is produced by modifying the air-permeability of a portion (121) of an air-permeable collector (120) to form a portion (11) of the air-laid blank (10) having a density from the average density. The air-laid blank (10) has two parallel planar major surfaces (12, 14)

Abstract: A folded 3D shaped packaging product (30) is folded at at least one crease (22A, 22B, 22C, 22D, 22E) constituting a folding line in a 3D shaped product (20) formed by hot pressing of an air-laid blank (10) comprising natural fibers at a concentration of at least 70% by weight of the air-laid blank (10) and a thermoplastic polymer binder at a concentration selected within an interval of from 4 up to 30% by weight of the air-laid blank (10). The folded 3D shaped packaging product (30) is useful for cushioning and/or thermal insulation of packaged goods and can protect multiple sides of the packaged goods.

Abstract: A 3D shaped packaging product (20) for cushioning and/or thermal insulation of packaged goods is formed by hot pressing at an average pressure equal to or below 200 kPa of an air-laid blank (10) comprising natural fibers at a concentration of at least 70% by weight of the air-laid blank (10) and a thermoplastic polymer binder at a concentration selected within an interval of from 4 up to 30% by weight of the air-laid blank (10). The 3D shaped packaging product (20) has a density that is less than four times a density of the air-laid blank (10) and the density of the 3D shaped packaging product (20) is selected within an interval of from 15 to 240 kg/m3. The 3D shaped packaging product (20) maintains at least a significant portion of the porosity of the air-laid blank (10) even after hot pressing and therefore provides excellent shock absorbing and damping properties and thermal insulation.
