Description
Summary:This paper emphasizes the significant usage of natural fiber as a reinforced composite in the potential engineering field. Mechanical, civil, textile, agricultural, and other engineering sectors have already initiated the utilization of natural fiber in their multiple fields. After going through some processes like treating chemically and synthesizing them accordingly, natural fiber composites are prepared for respective implementation. Unlike other types of composite materials, natural fiber composites have some unique properties like recyclability, adaptability, environmental safety, and easy persuasion. On the other hand, different types of naturally oriented fiber like jute, cotton, silk, linen, hemp, etc. have almost the same kind of mechanical, thermal, and chemical features as traditional composite materials. Additionally; automobile, marine, aerospace, medical, and recreation industries claim a significant realm in this type of material kingdom. Though moisture problems, fiber swelling, and safe reusability are threatening for natural fiber-reinforced composites, more research will certainly reduce these problems. Researchers play a significant role in the permanent solution of different applications of natural fiber composites in every engineering sector.
