Mechanical and Wear Properties of Natural Fibers Reinforced Composites and its Applications-A Review

Abstract

In considering sustainable and eco-friendly society, few ecological legislations drive material engineers and automakers to exploration for green based materials. Naturally available green particulates and fibers might find a significant role in future generation materials. Moreover, the steep rise in demand for high-damped material with good mechanical strength for the under-hood structure of automotive end applications and other applications like soundproof require newly designed lightweight materials. Plant resource-based polymer composites have an enormous impact on today’s global market. This is not only for its environmentally friendly nature, but also for its technical credibility and commercial viability to dominate the market. Moreover, there are many other attractive features including aesthetic appeal and decorative appearances. It has become one of the most popular composites available in the market in modern times.
