Abstract:Manufacturing natural based high-performance composites is becoming a greater interest to the composite manufacturers and to their end users due to their bio-degredability,low cost and availability. Yarn based textile architecture is commonly used in manufacturing these composites due to their excellent formability. However, for using natural based yarn as a reinforcing architectures in high load bearing structural composite applications, a significant improvement in mechanical performance is required.
