Legislation & Materials•EU agreed on a sustainable politic•End-of-life Vehicle directive 2000/53/EC
‣ Legislation to encourage re-use, recycling and other forms of recovery of ELVs
•Landfill directive 1999/31/EC‣ Legislation to prevent or reduce negative effects
on the environment from land filling of waste •WEEE directive 2002/96/EC
‣ Legislation to tackle rapidly increasing waste stream of EEE by recycling of EEE and limitation of wastes.

The Green Future•Strong need for new and reliable materials•Requirements:
‣Be recyclable, re-usable and biodegradable‣Obtained from sustainable resources‣Yield properties comparable to common plastics‣Be produced at low cost‣Be resistant to weatheringA possible solution would be the use
of cellulose based composite materials!

Composite Architecture (1)•Composite have at least 2 constituents•Fillers
‣ Different purposes: reinforcement, fire-retardant, colour, cost reduction, additives, etc...
‣ Different sizes: from mesoscale to nanoscale•Polymer matrix
‣ Aim: transfer load to fillers, hold and protect fillers‣ Type: thermosets, thermoplastics
•Interface‣ Impact on composite properties
