Polymer-based Natural Fiber Biocomposites: Sustainable Materials for Advanced Applications

By Abdelhamid Mourad, Nadia Kharchi, Brahim Barka

In the modern era of materials science, the urgent need for sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives to traditional petroleum-based plastics has never been more critical. "Polymer-based Natural Fiber Biocomposites" provides a comprehensive and cutting-edge exploration of high-performance composite materials designed to address these pressing environmental challenges. This book serves as an essential bridge between fundamental academic research and practical industrial applications in the rapidly growing field of green technology. The core focus of this work lies in the detailed analysis of biocomposites engineered from biodegradable polymer matrices reinforced with natural fibers. It delivers a profound understanding of how specific surface modifications and chemical treatments can successfully overcome the historical challenge of poor interfacial adhesion between hydrophilic natural fibers and hydrophobic polymer matrices. Readers will find in-depth discussions on processing methodologies, morphological analysis, and the optimization of both mechanical and thermal properties.
