Potential advantages of the composite material application consist in the possibility of obtaining a new, innovative material with many positive characteristics. Rape straw as filling allows for obtaining a material that is lighter than pure plastic. Moreover, the replacement of some of the plastic with rape straw filling enables to manufacture a material with similar properties, but at lower cost.

Other advantages of the composite material include:
• lower heat release when burning than when using pure polypropylene and lower ignition temperature,
• safe and easy processing on standard machinery,
• good thermal degradation properties,
• better noise insulation properties and increased resistance to humidity when compared with pure polypropylene.

Composite material for use as, for example, a noise damper
- screens by motorways, etc.
