Cellulose Fibre Reinforced Composites

Cellulose fibre reinforced composites derived from eco-friendly plant fibres have found wide utilization in several industrial applications. Due to their reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, cellulose fibres have emerged as an eco-friendly alternative to conventional materials. Cellulose Fibre Reinforced Composites: Interface Engineering, Processing and Performance provides an up-to-date review of current research in cellulose fibre reinforced polymer composites. Key emphasis is placed on interface engineering, modern technologies needed for processing and materials performance in industrial applications. Novel techniques for interfacial adhesion, characterization and assessment of cellulose fibre reinforced composites are also discussed as well as current trends and future directions. With contributions from leading researchers in industry, academic, government and private research institutions from across the globe the book will be an essential reference resource for all those working in the field of cellulose fibres and their composites. Reviews advances in recent research towards enhancing the mechanical properties of cellulose fibre composites Discusses interface engineering and modern technologies needed for processing cellulose fibre composites Case studies of problems with interfaces and practical industrial applications
