Flax fibre and its composites – A review (2014, background): “Natural fibres, as flax fibres, have also the potential to store carbon dioxide (temporarily) during their growth resulting in CO2 emission reductions [104].”
Biocomposites reinforced with natural fibers: 2000–2010 (2012, result): “The results were compared with commercially available glass fiber composites [261].”
Acoustic characterization of natural fibers for sound absorption applications (2015, background): “These are generally defined according to natural and renewable sources of their constituent materials, the low level of environmental pollution emitted during their production or to their low embodied energy [4,5].”
Life-cycle and environmental impact assessments on processing of plant fibres and its bio-composites: A critical review (2020, background): “Emissions can also be reduced by using plant fibres as they store CO2 at their growth time [100].”
A Review of Sustainable Materials for Acoustic Applications (2012, background): “It is well known that natural fibres have negative impact as far as climate change due to CO2 absorption during the growth of the plant [9].”
