“…The length and diameter of the fiber element (individual or bundles) provide an interface to transmit stresses from the matrix to the core of the fiber element, which was recently confirmed using synthetic fibers [16]. However, during processing of short fiber composites, the lignocellulosic fibers break, which reduces the fiber length and accordingly, under certain conditions, reduces the reinforcing efficiency of the fibers [17,18]. In previous study [17,19], it was demonstrated that defibrization or 'breakage' affect the fiber morphologies, which impact on the composite's mechanical properties.…”
