A Review on Natural Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composite and Its Applications (2015, background): “Al-Oqla and Sapuan [20] investigated the properties of jute/plastic composites such as crystallinity, fibermodification, thermal stability, weathering resistance, durability, in addition to their suitability to the automotive industry throughout ecodesign components.”
Industrial Hemp Fibers: An Overview (2019, methodology): “Industrial hemp is being used in a number of industries such as textiles, automotive, composites, fiberboard, heat-insulating materials [25,42], and building construction, for example, in fiber-reinforced concrete [19,25,92].”
Natural Fibers as Sustainable and Renewable Resource for Development of Eco-Friendly Composites: A Comprehensive Review (2019, background): “) are the tallest among the Phoenix species and can grow up to 23m height (Al-Oqla and Sapuan, 2014; Gheith et al., 2018;Masri et al., 2018).”
Natural Fibre Composites and Their Applications: A Review (2018, background): “In particular, mat composed with randomly chopped fibres (whiskers) does not have any preferential stress direction but they are the preferable choice for large-scale production due to the high availability, ease and cost effectiveness when manufacturing complex parts of isotropic nature [10].”
