Research Progress and Application of Natural Fiber Composites

ABSTRACT

Natural fiber composites have become a hot research topic all over the world, and have received strong support from governments. This paper first reviews the overall trend and development history of natural fiber composites, and analyzes their global market. Then the research highlights and situation of natural fiber composites are pointed out. Finally, the main industrial application fields of natural fiber composites are also summarized. In the future, High-performance and high value-added natural fiber composites are the important directions of global industrialization market. And it is necessary to further refine the key technologies behind the industrialization, and promote the green, intelligent and high-performance manufacturing of such composites, so as to play a positive role in national environmental protection and social sustainable development.
