Naheed Saba completed her PhD in Biocomposites from the Institute of Tropical Forestry and Forest Products (INTROP), Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM), Malaysia. She has published over 20 scientific and engineering articles in advanced composites, as well as one book and 8 book chapters. Dr. Saba’s research interests lie in nanocellulosic materials, fire retardant materials, natural fiber reinforced polymer composites, biocomposites, hybrid composites and nanocomposites. Klappentext The central aim of this book is to present a comprehensive review on the development, characterization, and applications of composite materials developed from the effective use of biomass as fillers and reinforcements to enhance materials performance for industrial and manufacturing applications. Written by leading experts in the field and covering agricultural biomass such as rice husks, wheat straw, oil palm, date palm, kenaf, pineapple, jute, ramie, sisal, flax, hemp, and doum fibres; the chapters will provide cutting-edge, up-to-date research on the use of biomass in polymer composites to achieve advanced material characteristics and significant enhancements in physical, mechanical, and thermal properties. The book fills a gap in the published literature and provides a reference for future research on biomass-based composite materials, which is much in demand due to the need for sustainable, recyclable, and eco-friendly composites and their use in different application fields.
