The paper overviews the essential considerations in the manufacturing process of natural
fiber composites which influence the performance of biocomposites. The evaluation of …

Cellulose, being an abundantly available natural biopolymer, has a high potential to replace
synthetic fibre. However, a paucity of knowledge and awareness on the use of cellulose, and …

The wide dispersion of the properties of plant fiber bundles further limits their use. In this
study, manual and retting methods were used to extract fiber bundles from the available and …
