ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to flax shives reinforced thermoplastic compositions and a method for reinforcing thermoplastic resins. The present invention provides a use for flax shives, which is the portion left over after processing plant materials to separate plant fibers (bast fibers) from the shives.
