Abstract

Abstract Moulding compositions comprising a polyolefin, cellulose fibres and an unsaturated organosilane exhibiting a tensile elasticity modulus (E), measured at 100° C., higher than 1250 MPa and a ratio G'/G" of their modulus G', representing their elastic response, to their loss modulus G", measured at 200° C. and at a frequency of 0.1 rad/s (0.1 s -1 ), with a value of at least 0.80.
