A number of thermoplastics have been evaluated as potential materials for composite and blend formulations with natural polymers such as cellulosics, lignocellulose, and starches. The use of biofibers, derived from annually renewable resources, as reinforcing fibers provides positive environmental benefits.An important aspect that affects the processing and ultimate performance is the interfacial adhesion between the biofibers and the plastic.
