Abstract
A compatibilized polyolefin/polyolefin composite material includes a polyolefin/polyolefin composite substrate and a reinforcing mat formed from reinforcing fibers and a thermoplastic polymer powder. The mat may also incorporate an optional emulsion polymer binder. In addition the compatibilized polyolefin/polyolefin composite material may incorporate an additional film layer so that the mat is sandwiched between the substrate and the film layer. A method of producing such materials from a polyolefin/polyolefin composite substrate that is topologically/mechanically bonded to a reinforcing mat formed from reinforcing fibers and thermoplastic polymer powder is also described.
