Introduction: a perspective - natural fibre composites in construction -- Chemical compositions of natural fibres -- Physical and mechanical properties of natural fibers -- Functional pretreatments of natural raw materials -- Cellulose polymer composites (WPC) -- Long natural fibre composites -- Cellulose fiber-based high strenght composites -- Natural fibre cement composites -- Natural fibre rebar cemntitious composites -- Development of bamboo fiber-based composites -- Straw fibre-based construction materials -- Electricity functional composite for building construction -- Sound absorption and insulation functional composites fire performance of natural fibre composites in construction -- Temperature sensitive colour-changed composites -- Architectural (decorative) natural fiber composites for construction -- Short term and long-term properties of natural fibre composites -- Creep behavior of plant fibre composites -- Thermal and flame retardancy properties of thermoplastics/natural fiber biocomposites -- Design characteristics, code and standards of natural fibre composites -- Sustainability and life assessment of high strength natural fibre composites in construction -- Future scope and intelligence of natural fibre based construction composites.
This book provides the basic framework and knowledge required for the efficient and sustainable use of natural fiber composites as a structural and building material, along with information on the ongoing efforts to improve the efficiency of use and competitiveness of these composites.
