Abstract (AI)
Recently, there has been a rapid growth in research and innovation in the natural fibre composite (NFC) area. Interest is warranted due to the advantages of these materials compared to others, such as synthetic fibre composites, including low environmental impact and low cost and support their potential across a wide range of applications. Much effort has gone into increasing their mechanical performance to extend the capabilities and applications of this group of materials. This review aims to provide an overview of the factors that affect the mechanical performance of NFCs and details achievements made with them.
Key Findings
1
Natural fibre composites are attracting growing research interest because they offer lower environmental impact and cost than synthetic fibre composites.
2
Natural fibre composites have potential for applications across a wide range of fields.
3
Recent research has focused substantially on improving the mechanical performance of natural fibre composites.
4
The review identifies factors affecting NFC mechanical performance and summarizes reported achievements in enhancing these properties.
