Natural Reinforcing Fillers for Polymeric Composite Materials. Review

  • FIBROUS COMPOSITE MATERIALS
  • Published:
Fibre Chemistry Aims and scope

One of the main research directions in the development of green polymeric composite materials, i.e., the use of natural fibers as reinforcing fillers for textiles, is reviewed. Advanced studies on technologies for fabricating and processing polymeric composite materials based on natural reinforcing fillers are presented. Seven leading global manufacturers of natural reinforcing fillers for polymeric composite materials are briefly characterized. Information on the feedstock being processed and the areas of application of the manufactured textile products is given.
