Trends on Reinforced Polymer Composites – A Review

Abstract

In recent years, the interest in using fiber reinforced composites (FRC) has increased due to their potential to replace traditional materials in various applications. The advantages of polymer composites from natural fibres are: biodegradability, high performance, market availability and low price. This article is based on a review that discusses both polymer composite materials and typical applications by other authors on fiber reinforced composites (FRCs).
