Natural Fiber Textile Composite EngineeringAuthor(s): Magdi El Messiry\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Apple Academic Press Inc., Canada\nImprint: Apple Academic Press Inc.\nISBN-13: 9781771885546, 978-1771885546\nSynopsis\nNatural Fiber Textile Composite Engineering sheds light on the area of the natural fiber textile composites with new research on their applications, the material used, the methods of preparation, the different types of polymers, the selection of raw materials, the elements of design the natural fiber textile polymer composites for a particular end use, their manufacturing techniques, and finally their life cycle assessments (LCA). The volume also addresses the important issue in the materials science of how to utilize natural fibers as an enhancement to composite materials. Natural fiber-reinforced polymer composites have been proven to provide a combination of superior mechanical property, dielectric property, and environmental advantages such as renewability and b.
