ECOGEHR® C-L Biodegradable
ECOGEHR® C-L is comprised of the wood components
cellulose, natural fibres, lignin and fatty acids.
It possesses many interesting properties that together
are very similar to the natural material wood.
Consequently, this material is very pleasant to the
touch, produces high-quality sound and is easily
workable. It also has a high degree of rigidity (tensile
module of elasticity up to 4248 MPa). Clearly, its
advantages compared with waxed wood lie in the
material's homogeneity. Whereas wood displays
density variations resulting from growth rings or
imperfections (branches), ECOGEHR® C-L provides an
isotropic material texture and reproducible properties.
This 100% renewable material is largely neutral in
terms of its CO2 balance, and like wood it can be
disposed of via decomposition or burning.
Due to its composition and its properties similar to
those of wood, C-L is used where wood needs to be
replaced by a homogeneous material and where
traditional plastics do not meet the requirements. The
material is popular in applications where sound and feel
are of primary importance.
Examples: �� Woodwind instruments
�� Drumsticks
�� Billiard cues
�� The furniture industry
�� Display construction
�� Fashion jewellery
�� Writing implements
