12-15 September, San Pedro, Brazil, pp 158-160. Abstract: Composite materials from a linseed oil resin/styrene thermoset copolymer and pine wood•our have been prepared and tested. Simple theoretical models were applied to analyze the effect of porosity and interfacial adhesion on the •exural properties. Keywords: composites, natural resins, mechanical properties, porosity.
