Summary, etc. <p style="text-align: justify;">Flax/polypropylene needle - punched nonwovens (550 g /m<sup>2</sup>) have been produced and then used as a preform for theproduction of composites. In this study, better infiltration of polypropylene melt into the flax fibres has been achieved byaltering the crystal structure of polypropylene in the preform. A modified sequence of production of composites is alsoproposed. The proposed method yields composite with 25, 98 and, 91% improvement in tensile, flexural and short beamstrength properties as compared to the conventional method of manufacturing.</p>
