Abstract:Recent advancements in composites involve integrating natural fibers into polymer matrices as a reinforcement or filler. This approach offers several benefits, including eco-friendliness, abundant natural materials, exceptional strength, cost-effectiveness, and simple extraction methods. Substituting synthetic materials with natural ones has environmental advantages, as some synthetics release toxins at high temperatures. Natural materials reduce the risk of toxic emissions, fostering a safer environment. Thus… Show more
