Natural fiber–reinforced polymer composites (NFRPCs) are gaining favor over synthetic fiber owing to their lower cost and environmental friendly characteristics, as they exist abundantly and are renewable. NFRPCs have developed from a laboratory scale of fundamental research to industrial implementa...
