“…Knowledge of the thermal properties of composites is of great importance when the need to meet new requirements of polymer matrix composite designs arises. Different new materials with unique properties that meet the needs of a particular purpose are currently under research in different parts of the world [ 156 , 157 ]. Agrawal et al [ 158 ] developed a mathematical model for determining the effective thermal conductivity of hybrid-filled composites.…”

Growing environmental concerns have increased the scientific interest in the utilization of natural fibers for the development of epoxy biocomposite materials. The incorporation of one or more fibers in the production of hybrid epoxy polymer composites has been a subject of discussion. It is interesting to acknowledge that natural/synthetic fiber hybridized epoxy composites have superior properties over natural/natural fiber hybridized epoxy composites. Significant efforts have been devoted to the improvement of natural fiber surface modifications to promote bonding with the epoxy matrix. However, to achieve sufficient surface modification without destroying the natural fibers, optimization of treatment parameters such as the concentration of the treatment solution and treatment time is highly necessary. Synthetic and treated natural fiber hybridization in an epoxy matrix is expected to produce biocomposites with appreciable biodegradability and superior mechanical properties by manipulating the fiber/matrix interfacial bonding. This paper presents a review of studies on the processing of epoxy natural fiber composites, mechanical properties, physical properties such as density and water absorption, thermal properties, biodegradability study, nondestructive examination, morphological characterizations, and applications of epoxy-based natural fiber biocomposites. Other aspects, including a review of variables that enhance the mechanical and functional performance of epoxy/natural fibers composites while also increasing the biodegradability of the composite material for environmental sustainability, were presented. The future research focus was elucidated. It is hoped that this review will stimulate and refocus research efforts toward advancing the manufacture of epoxy/natural fiber composites to meet the growing demand for biocomposite materials in the global world.

“…The dynamic properties of the multiple-core sandwich construction were required due to its importance. Various examinations have been directed on a few kinds of fibers, for example, kenaf, hemp, flax, bamboo, feathers, and jute to consider the impact of these filaments on the composite materials in mechanical properties [6]. The natural fiber-strengthened hybrid polymer has been utilized to supplant the synthetic composites.…”

The utilization of renewable raw materials, such as natural fiber composites, can be prioritized in the building industry as it transitions to a bioeconomy. The sustainable product can improve environmental protection; therefore, the present work is stated with the natural fibers of chopped banyan fiber reinforced with sawdust nanocellulose epoxy-based composite fabricated by hand layup process. To identify the mechanical effects of tensile strength, flexural strength, impact strength, and hardness value for five different weight ratios of chopped banyan fibers and sawdust nanofiller materials, the composite weight ratio was made with 60% of matrix phase that was fixed for all five samples and 40% of reinforcement phase in which the fibers and filler percentage can vary for five samples. The results are revealed sample E (50 g of banyan, 25 g of saw dust, 110 g of epoxy, and 185 g of laminate) given a more tensile strength of 39 MPa and a flexural strength of 34 MPa, and sample A was given a high impact energy absorption capacity of 18 Joule compared with other samples of hybrid composite; and also, the SEM morphological was used to identify the surface interaction and failure mode of this composite laminates.

“…Microstructural minerals and plastics have the highest rigidity, are much more resilient, and have greater strength and durability. As a result, freezing processing of composites could be a key component of revolutionary goods to increase the quality of organic lignocellulosic fibres [4,10,19,20]. The foremost persistence of this study is to develop and evaluate hybridised organic nanostructures for material characteristics.…”

Mostly at the micro- and nanoscales, efforts were made to produce innovative thermoplastic nanocomposite materials. These composites were reinforced with natural fibres and artificial additives with improved mechanical characteristics. This research entails the creation of a novel nanocomposite material made up of unsaturated polyester resin, graphite at the nanoscale, and flax fibres at the microscale. Flax fibres make up 4, 8, and 12% of the binding matrix’s weight, respectively. A constant quantity of nanoparticles equal to 4 wt% of the binding matrix is used. In order to stick the graphene to natural fibres, an appropriate surface alteration approach is needed, and this work will focus on the plasma technique of interface adherence. Fibres were employed as a reinforcement with polyester to create a nanocomposite that improved adherence between the fillers while also retaining the matrix alkalisation. In order to assess interferential adherence and fibre distribution homogeneity in the matrix system, the composite was made up of hand lay-up technique. The manufactured composite was engrossed into fluid N2 at -196°C. A SEM was utilized to undertake treated and untreated specimens for spectroscopy analyses. Mechanical possessions like tension and flexural were accomplished. In comparison to previous tested doses, the 5 percent alkali-treated flax incorporating graphite has shown promising outcomes than other samples.
