Abstract
The need of eco friendly material or specific use in automobiles and construction industries has lead to the development of natural fibre composites. Most of the available natural fibres are renewable and posses relatively high strength, stiffness and thermal stability etc. Presently natural fibres are focus of many designers and research scholar due to its low cost and abundant availability in nature. Moreover, processing of these fibres is still going on using conventional production method. Natural fibre composites are being used since ancient Egypt, where straw and clay were mixed together to build walls. The most important type of natural fibre used as composites are flex hemp, jute, straw, bamboo stick etc. which are used due to their desired properties and easy availability. In this paper review of different properties such as Mechanical, Chemical and Thermal properties of natural fibre composite is presented. The main objective of this paper is to study and investigate the existing properties of natural and common composite fibres and to promote the use of natural fibre which is economical and against environmental aggressive material.
