Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:The invention provides a fibre-reinforced polymer composite comprising fibres derived from mammalian hair and/or feathers, wherein the fibres have been prepared by means of a process comprising the steps of: (a) subjecting mammalian hair and/or feathers to an oxidation treatment in which the hair and/or feathers (is) are contacted with a solution, which comprises a bleaching agent; (b) separating the oxidised hair and/or feathers from the solution; and (c) drying the separated hair and/or feathers. The invention further provides processes to prepare said composite, a process to prepare said fibres, and shaped polymer products comprising said composite.
