Environmental concerns have regenerated interest in the use of natural fibres for a much wider variety of products, including high-tech applications such as geotextiles, and in composite materials for automotive and light industry use. This new study covers the chemical and physical structure of these natural fibres; fibre, yarn and fabric production; dyeing; handle and wear characteristics; economics; environmental and health and safety issues.

Natural fiber-reinforced composites have the potential to replace synthetic composites, leading to less expensive, stronger and more environmentally-friendly materials. This book provides a detailed review on how a broad range of biofibers can be used as reinforcements in composites and assesses their overall performance. The book is divided into five major parts according to the origins of the different biofibers. Part I contains chapters on bast fibers, Part II; leaf fibers, Part III; seed fibers, Part IV; grass, reed and cane fibers, and finally Part V covers wood, cellulosic and other f
