“…Lower compressive strength values were also linked to the influence of matrix degradation [28]. (5% and 7%) resulted in performance decline due to particle agglomeration on the fibre surface, leading to poor stress transfer [29]. The experiments showed that a combination of 31 wt% banana fibre and 4 wt% tamarind seed particles exhibited the highest tensile strength (27.73 MPa), flexural strength (46 MPa), and impact strength (12.8 kJ/m2) of the four samples with varying tamarind content due to better interfacial adhesion among the fibre, matrix, and filler surface.…”

Natural fibres are highly desirable in composites as they are renewable, biodegradable, and cost-effective. They are also abundant in nature with many different types available all over the world. However, despite their advantages, key challenges such as poor fibre-matrix interfacial bonding and moisture absorption limit their widespread adoption in more sophisticated applications. This article provides an overview of natural fibres, including classifications, types, properties, advantages, and disadvantages, with a subsequent review of recent studies, focusing on fibre-matrix selection, treatment methods, and characterization to better understand the current situation. It is apparent from these studies that water absorption is a significant challenge due to the inherent hydrophilic nature of natural fibres as even after treatments like mercerization and silane were applied, substantial amounts of absorption were observed. The effects of powder fillers also vary, with beneficial effects up to a certain proportion, beyond which they became detrimental.

“…The choice of hybrid composites is often motivated by the pursuit of cost‐efficiency, leveraging a mix of materials with varying costs. Hybridization allows for compensating for the weaknesses of one material with the strengths of another, resulting in a more robust composite 33–35 . The novel hybrid composite, comprised of palm sheath and sugarcane bagasse fibers in an epoxy resin matrix, demonstrated impressive mechanical properties.…”

“…The best sample exhibited a tensile strength of 19.80 ± 0.78 MPa, flexural strength of 28.79 MPa, impact strength of 2 kJ/m 2 , and a hardness value of 38.02 HD, making it suitable for applications such as an automobile dashboard 36 . Even with other synthetic fibers such as glass fiber, 37,38 carbon fiber, 39 and CNT, 40 graphene, armide, structural applications, 41 automobile interior parts, medical industry, 42 musical instruments parts, and in textile industries, bamboo is becoming helpful in terms of environment aspects 33,43–49 . Wang et al used zinc and ultrafine bamboo char (UFBC) to make a zinc‐rich coating to protect steel from corrosion.…”

In the pursuit of sustainable and high‐performance materials, this study presents a groundbreaking approach to enhance the mechanical properties of glass fiber‐reinforced polymer composites. Railway waste provides an unexpected source of recycled glass fibers (RGFs), which, when combined with bamboo fibers (BFs) and nano SiO2 in a resilient epoxy matrix, unleashes a transformative synergy. The epoxy‐SiO2 matrix ratio was kept constant, that is,70% by weight while varying the ratio of RGF and BFs weight. The experimental results demonstrated notable improvements in mechanical properties. Specifically, a 36.92% increase in tensile strength was observed with an RGF and BF ratio of 20:10. Flexural strength exhibited a substantial enhancement of 44.67%, and impact strength increased by 31.28% at a ratio of 15:15. The composite achieved a remarkable 42.64% improvement in hardness, while attaining the lowest density value of 0.862 at a ratio of 25:05.Water absorption tests, conducted in both distilled and saline water, provided insights into the material's resistance to environmental conditions. The morphological and dispersion behaviors of the prepared composites were analyzed using advanced characterization techniques, including field‐emission scanning electron microscopy (FE‐SEM) to study the orientation, shape, and size of fibers and particles, bonding between the fibers and matrix, defects, voids, etc. Combined with energy dispersive x‐ray spectroscopy (EDX), FESEM allows for elemental analysis, helping to identify and quantify the chemical composition of different phases within the polymer composite. X‐ray diffraction (XRD) analysis to know the compositions of developed composites. The findings from this study underscore the efficacy of incorporating recycled materials.Highlights Extraction and reusing GF to develop a new hybrid composite. BF and RGF in epoxy‐SiO2 matrix present high mechanical property composite. Density and water absorption tests were done to see the swelling properties. Characterization technique employed to see the interphase of composites developed.

“…Hybrid biobased composites that exploit the collaboration between natural fibres in a nanoreinforced in a nanosupported biobased polymer can prompt superior properties alongside keeping up with natural allure. Because of their biocompatibility, biocomposites are employed in a variety of restorative uses like domestic sector and circuit boards [2]. Typically, composites are strengthened by changing the matrix phase by adding fibre and particle, either treated or untreated, to increase the overall strength of the composite [3].…”

In this work, the effects of amino silane-grafted areca fibre and papaya slice biochar particle on the mechanical, thermal conductivity, and dielectric properties of epoxy resin biocomposite were shown. The goal of the study was to find out how the way fibres are treated affects their properties and how those properties affect the composite as a whole. The acid hydrolysis process is used to treat the raw chopped fibre and slice-dried particles with amino silane and then air-dry them in an oven. The oven-dried areca nut fibre and charcoal particles are then used with a hand-layup method to make composites that meet ASTM standards. According to the results, the tensile and flexural strengths got better by 64% and 50%, respectively, and the impact resistance got better by 93%. The use of reinforcing materials gradually improved the dielectric properties and the way heat moved through the material.
