Abstract
⺠A process for transesterification of lignocellulosic fibers is proposed. ⺠The process uses vegetable oil and phenolic resin in alkaline condition. ⺠The treatment results in approximately 70% increase in tensile strength. ⺠Susceptibility to biological and chemical degradations is also remarkably reduced.
