Mechanical Properties of Reinforced Thermoplastics edited by D.W. Clegg, A.A. Collyer.

The reinforcement of materials such as mud and clay by hair, straw and vegetable fibres has been long established in man's history, enabling him to improve his buildings and extend his engineering abilities. With the advent of modern synthetic polymers it was rapidly realised that the addition...
