Abstract

The present report reviews the recent developments in hybrid natural/synthetic fiber reinforced biocomposites. The combination of two or more fibers in a single matrix are regarded as a hybrid and few researches have been done in this regard unlike natural or synthetic fiber reinforced composites. The hybridization of natural and synthetic fiber helps to improve the properties of fiber reinforced composites when compared to just natural fiber reinforced composite. Furthermore, the hazardous effect of synthetic fiber on the environment is reduced as the synthetic fiber is now reduced in quantity. The mechanical and thermal properties of natural/synthetic fiber hybrid composites are confirmed to be higher than the unhybridized natural fiber composites. Industries, such as automobile, aviation, building and electronics have embraced hybrid biocomposites. The possible depletion of the virgin materials and the resultant environmental concern is among the reasons this method is gaining worldwide popularity in composite materials production. This work aims at showcasing the major findings on hybrid composites, focusing on the processing methods, mechanical, thermal, morphology and water uptake properties of hybrid composites.
