“…The beneficial effects in improving the properties of epoxy composites point out the possible use of green fillers as an alternative to synthetic fibers for composite applications. Ridzuan et al [55] presented the effects of pineapple leaf (PALF), Napier, and hemp fibers on the scratch resistance of epoxy composites. The effect of the fillers on the horizontal load, coefficient of friction, penetration depth, scratch hardness, and scratch observation were studied.…”

Epoxy resins as important organic matrices, thanks to their chemical structure and the possibility of modification, have unique properties, which contribute to the fact that these materials have been used in many composite industries for many years. Epoxy resins are repeatedly used in exacting applications due to their exquisite mechanical properties, thermal stability, scratch resistance, and chemical resistance. Moreover, epoxy materials also have really strong resistance to solvents, chemical attacks, and climatic aging. The presented features confirm the fact that there is a constant interest of scientists in the modification of resins and understanding its mechanisms, as well as in the development of these materials to obtain systems with the required properties. Most of the recent studies in the literature are focused on green fillers such as post-agricultural waste powder (cashew nuts powder, coconut shell powder, rice husks, date seed), grass fiber (bamboo fibers), bast/leaf fiber (hemp fibers, banana bark fibers, pineapple leaf), and other natural fibers (waste tea fibers, palm ash) as reinforcement for epoxy resins rather than traditional non-biodegradable fillers due to their sustainability, low cost, wide availability, and the use of waste, which is environmentally friendly. Furthermore, the advantages of natural fillers over traditional fillers are acceptable specific strength and modulus, lightweight, and good biodegradability, which is very desirable nowadays. Therefore, the development and progress of “green products” based on epoxy resin and natural fillers as reinforcements have been increasing. Many uses of natural plant-derived fillers include many plant wastes, such as banana bark, coconut shell, and waste peanut shell, can be found in the literature. Partially biodegradable polymers obtained by using natural fillers and epoxy polymers can successfully reduce the undesirable epoxy and synthetic fiber waste. Additionally, partially biopolymers based on epoxy resins, which will be presented in the paper, are more useful than commercial polymers due to the low cost and improved good thermomechanical properties.

“…The effects of moisture exposure and elevated temperatures on the impact response of Pennisetum purpureum/glass-reinforced epoxy (PGRE) hybrid composites were evaluated by Ridzuan et al They concluded that by increasing temperatures, the stiffness of the composites was shown to drop significantly, increasing the absorbed energy and peak deflection, causing serious damage to the specimens. Water immersion, on the other hand, did not result in a reduction in the impact load or energy absorption in a research on falling weight impact damage characterization of flax and flax basalt vinyl ester hybrid composites [ 168 ]. Chapman and Dhakal investigated the low-velocity impact and flexural capabilities, as well as damage characteristics, of flax-carbon/epoxy hybrid composites that might be employed in structural lightweight applications.…”

Natural and synthetic fibres have emerged in high demand due to their excellent properties. Natural fibres have good mechanical properties and are less expensive, making them a viable substitute for synthetic fibers. Owing to certain drawbacks such as their inconsistent quality and hydrophilic nature, researchers focused on incorporating these two fibres as an alternative to improve the limitations of the single fibre. This review focused on the interply hybridisation of natural and synthetic fibres into composites. Natural fibres and their classifications are discussed. The physical and mechanical properties of these hybrid composites have also been included. A full discussion of the mechanical properties of natural/synthetic fibre hybrid composites such as tensile, flexural, impact, and perforation resistance, as well as their failure modes, is highlighted. Furthermore, the applications and future directions of hybrid composites have been described in details.

“…The most important sectors like medical and aerospace have also started to use natural fiber reinforcement in many applications. [4,[23][24][25][26][27][28][29] Natural fibers have a few drawbacks such as higher moisture absorption, which can decrease the adhesion, but it has been reported by many articles that the properties like porosity, wetting, tension, and adhesion strength of the surface can be modified by chemical treatment. [4,[28][29][30][31][32][33] Date palm fiber is mostly grown in Asia and Saudi.…”

Recently many research studies have revealed the increasing importance of natural fiber in modern applications. Natural fibers are used these days in many important sectors like medical, aerospace, agriculture, and so forth. The cause of increasing the application of natural fiber in different fields is its ecofriendly behavior and excellent mechanical properties. In the research work, date palm, a natural fiber, is used to replace asbestos and Kevlar, which are very harmful to the human body. There are very few papers on comparative study of natural fiber-based composites to actual brake friction material. In this study, new brake pad composites of date palm fiber are developed and compared with Kevlar-based brake pad composites. The different percentages (5%-20%) of date palm fiber and Kevlar (5-10) were used to compare the study.The date palm fiber composites have given maximum better results on 5% composition for the mechanical, tribological, physical, and chemical proprieties.
