Green composites based on polypropylene matrix and hydrophobized spend coffee ground (SCG) powder (2015, background): “As a consequence of such environmental awareness we are witnessing a great interest in the research on more environmentally friendly materials as it is the case of polymer composites reinforced with natural fibers (natural fiber reinforced plastics-NFRP and wood plastic composites-WPC) [1-3].”
Developments in Chemical Treatments, Manufacturing Techniques and Potential Applications of Natural-Fibers-Based Biodegradable Composites (2021, background): “A vast majority of the research data published in recent years on natural fiber composites provide limited information on the classification of natural fibers [27], the effect of chemical treatments, and their applications [28–30].”
Re-Emerging Field of Lignocellulosic Fiber – Polymer Composites and Ionizing Radiation Technology in their Formulation (2016, background): “PP is favored for nonstructural automotive components due to its low density, excellent processability, mechanical properties, excellent electrical properties, good dimensional stability, and impact resistance.20 Recent developments in natural fiber reinforced polypropylene composites were discussed”
