摘要
Increased environmental awareness and societal needs serve as a catalyst for developing new eco-friendly materials like green composites. In the recent past, researchers have reported the results of their studies on green composites of different plant fibres and various biodegradable matrices. This article is an overview of the various aspects of green composites. Composites based on important biodegradable matrices like rubber, poly(lactic acid), poly(butylene succinate), poly(hydroxybutanoate) and soy-based matrices have been discussed. Special emphasis has been given to natural rubber-based green composites.
