Abstract

Natural fibre (NFR) reinforced functional polymer composites are quickly becoming an indispensable sustainable material in the transportation industry because of their lightweight, lower cost in manufacture, and adaptability to a wide variety of goods. However, the major difficulties of using these fibres are their existing poor dimensional stability and the extreme hydrophilicity. In assessing the mechanical properties (MP) of composites, the interfacial bonding (IB) happening between the NFR and the polymer matrix (PM) plays an incredibly significant role. When compared to NFR/synthetic fibre hybrid composites, hybrid composites (HC) made up of two separate NFR are less prevalent; yet, these hybrid composites also have the potential to be valuable materials in terms of environmental issues. A new dimension to the flexibility of composites reinforced with NFR is added by the cost-effective manufacture of hybrid composites utilising NFR. The purpose of this study is to offer an overview of the key findings that were presented on hybrid composites. The emphasis was focused on the factors that influence the performance of the natural fiber composites, diverse approaches to enhancing MP, physical, electrical, and thermal characteristics of the HC. HC study in polymer science gains interest for applications in construction and automotive industries.
