Abstract
⺠Novel biocomposites based on cork were prepared by simple melting-mixing. ⺠Poly(lactic acid) and poly(caprolactone) were selected as the polymeric matrices. ⺠The materials showed good dispersion of cork particles into the polymeric matrices. ⺠For higher cork contents, these low density materials are quite flexible.
