Abstract
Naturally available filaments have recently become attractive to researchers, engineers, and scientists because of suitability as an alternative reinforcement for fiber reinforced polymer composites. Low cost, fairly good mechanical properties, non-abrasive and bio-degradability attributes, abused as a swap for the regular fiber. The tractable properties of normal fiber reinforced composites are mainly influenced by the interfacial adhesion between the matrix and the fibers. In this article survey on biosoftening, adhesion, the effect of fiber length, the effect of chemical treatments of long areca fibers, Influence of mercerization on the tensile strength of long & short areca fibers, areca husk have been discussed.
