Investigation on Recent Research of Mechanical Properties of Natural Fiber Reinforced Composites (NFRP) Materials

Abstract

Renewability, recyclability and biodegradable contents are similar to glass fibers in natural fiber reinforced polymer composites (NFRP) which have definite mechanical properties. The interface of polymer matrix and natural fibers results the composites to achieve superior properties of products. Researchers have extended their product designs and production techniques by using renewable materials such as jute fiber, cotton fiber, silk fiber, etc. which are enormous and used in the manufacture of durable industrial goods of high-end quality. This paper reviews the current developments and the brief findings needed in literature, concentrating on the mechanical properties and applications of NFRP.
