Abstract
Now-a-days the production of polymers reinforced with natural fiber has rapid growth, the reason behind this growth is the properties and performance of the natural plant fiber reinforced composites are superior to conventional polymers derived from petroleum. Due to its biodegradability nature researchers and industries shows tremendous interest in the field of poly lactic acid (PLA) based biopolymers. Even though due to its Brittle nature and high production cost, restrict their use in a broad various application. For those reasons material scientists carried out various researches to enhance the properties of PLA by reinforcing with different materials. Various researches show that reinforcing with biodegradable products to make cost effective product and reducing the brittle nature of PLA by making bio composite. When compare to synthetic fibers have less expensive, high strength to weight ratio, ease to handle. Even though it has some disadvantages such as water absorbance and hydrophobicity problem. It is also mandatory that changing the surface behavior for even stress distribution between fiber and matrix.
