Composites reinforced with short natural fibres has been done, as a matrix used polyester resin. The natural fibres such as palm-fibre and coir-fibre have been treated with chemical and mechanical treatment. The mechanical properties of composites with treated natural fibres better than untreated natural fibres composites. [Pg.639]

Another step in putting the concept into practice could be made in a development project with the Johnson Controls Interiors company (subsidised by the Ministry of Food, Agriculture, and Forestry of Lower Saxony). The goal of this project was to create a door panelling element with a material made of 100% renewable resources since the goal was an environmentally-friendly means of disposal. In addition to the priority of economic efficiency, the established manufacturing technique was to be used in order to meet the required component specifications. A biopolymer which by then had been developed made it possible for the natural fibre composite material to meet the requirements determined in the specifications sheet. [Pg.33]

Natural fibre-reinforced polymers have created interest in the recent years in the automotive industry. Besides, other applications of natural fibre composites include door inner panel, seat back, roof inner panel, and so on. Natural fibres are being used in automotive industry due to the following reasons ... [Pg.279]

The automotive industry is the prime driver of green composites because the industry is faced with issues for which green materials offer a solution [69]. Many components for the automotive sector are now made from natural fibre composite materials [70]. Natural fibres have intrinsic properties like mechanical strength, low weight and low cost, ecological sustainability, low energy requirements for... [Pg.24]

For consumers, natural fibre composites in automobiles provide better thermal and acoustic insulation than fibre glass and reduce irritation of the skin and respiratory system. The low density of plant fibres also reduces vehicle weight, which cuts fuel consumption [72]. Alves et al. [73] studied the life cycle assessment (LCA) analysis of the replacement of glass fibres by jute fibres as reinforcement of composite materials to produce automotive structural components in the structural frontal bonnet of an off-road vehicle (Buggy).
