1. A method of producing plastics composites containing cellulose or lignocellulose material in a plastics matrix, said method comprising the successive steps of:
- (1) subjecting the cellulose or lignocellulose material to pre-hydrolytic chemical degradation, and thereafter(2) incorporating the thus degraded cellulosic or lignocellulosic material into the plastics matrix thereby facilitating comminution and improved dispersion of the cellulosic or lignocellulosic materials in the plastic phase.

Abstract
A method to produce composites based on cellulose or lignocellulosic materials and plastics according to which method the cellulose or lignocellulose material is subjected to a pre-hydrolytic or other chemically degrading treatment prior to or during the compounding or processing step whereby a comminution and improved dispersion of the cellulose or lignocellulose material in the plastic phase is achieved.

4. A method of producing a thermoplastic composite in which cellulose of lignocellulose materials are dispersed, said method comprising the successive steps of:
-
(1) subjecting a cellulose or lignocellulose material to a pre-hydrolytic treatment to produce an embrittled easily disintegratable, self-comminuting material, and thereafter (2) incorporating the thus-treated material into the thermoplastic and subjecting the resulting mixture to shear forces thereby comminuting the treated cellulosic or lignocellulosic material and distributing same throughout the thermoplastic. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6, 7)
