ABSTRACT = {Tannin-resorcinol-formaldehyde (TRF) resin shows a good compatibility with natural fl ax fi bers and yields 
composite materials of good mechanical properties when using paraformaldehyde as a hardener. Different 
formulations, curing parameters and processes such as high-temperature curing in press or spray-drying 
have been explored in order to adapt this resin to composite manufacturing and to improve the properties of 
this new material. Additional testing has been performed on the TRF resin by thermomechanical analysis to 
observe its reactivity at different pH and with the use of different hardeners.},
