“…[23][24][25] Lignocelluloses are more popular and valuable for the reasons such as biodegradable nature, a huge source of supply, lower density, higher stiffness and specific strength, better thermal properties and polar surface. [26,27] They also have some disadvantages like hydrophilic nature; processing temperature limit is low and moderate mechanical properties. These natural biocomposites are bonded by lignin matrix materials with a coupling of hemicellulose.…”

The continuous delivery of E-waste from petroleum-based products creates ecological and environmental problems due to non-biodegradable polymers, which release harmful chemicals and toxic gases. This results in biodegradable polymers/fibers appearance, which are biocompatible and degrade in the surrounding environments without causing any environmental pollution and these relieve environmental burden. However, the bio-based materials are unable to meet certain properties in the way of flexibility, dielectric properties, electrical properties, water and gas vapor barrier properties. The current day's research focus is towards the implementation of biodegradable composites properties by introducing different nanostructures. The biopolymers/biofibers

In recent days, natural fiber reinforced polymer composite is more popular due to its extensive properties suitable for various potential applications. The attention towards natural fibers is because of low cost, biodegradable, recyclability, nonabrasive, combustible, lightweight, and nontoxic properties. However, there is a need for furthermore fundamental knowledge for the raw materials processing and fabrication of composite structures, which is still challenging in current days. Natural fiber sources exist all over the world, which is obtained from animals, plants and minerals. The quality of the natural fibers depends on the extraction methods and different processing techniques. These natural fibers surface characteristics could be enhanced by selecting suitable surface treatment and chemical treatment. These fiber treatments reduce the water intake percentage, improve the adhesive nature, and enhance the overall performance of resulting polymer composites. Among all the chemical treatments, alkaline treatment (NaOH) is the most preferred chemical treatment because of its effectiveness and its low cost. This review article proposes the natural fibers detailed classification, composition, structure, properties, and extraction methods, chemical and surface treatments. We also summarize the previous research work findings on the fibers treatment, properties of natural/natural hybrid polymer composites and natural/synthetic hybrid polymer composites with applications.

The present study investigated the influence of waste materials on physico‐mechanical, dynamic mechanical, and abrasive wear behavior of polymer composites. The composites were manufactured by varying the waste bagasse fiber (2.5, 5, 7.5, and 10 wt%) in fixed marble dust (15 wt%) filled epoxy resin. The void content of the composite found to decrease, whereas density, impact energy, and flexural strength were found to increase with the increase of waste bagasse fiber loading. The hardness and tensile strength were first increased, and after attaining highest values for 7.5 wt% fiber content, both decreased with another fiber loading. Damping properties such as storage modulus, loss modulus, and damping factor were evaluated utilizing dynamic mechanical analyzer. Results showed that the composites with 10 wt% waste bagasse fiber loading exhibited highest viscoelastic properties. Moreover, the dry sand abrasive wear behavior of fabricated composites was designed to study the impact of fiber loading, sliding distance, and load using the Taguchi method. The analysis reveals that the sliding distance contributes the most toward abrasive wear of the composites, with a contribution of 58.70%. 7.5 wt% waste bagasse fiber, 400 m sliding distance, and 5 N load resulted in a most wear‐resistant combination. Finally, the abraded composite surfaces were examined using scanning electron microscopy to study the possible wear mechanisms.
