Résumé:
The global demand for metallic materials has increased over the last decades, prompting many
factories to seek new composite materials focused on improving mechanical properties.
A composite material is created by combining two or more components, including plant-based
sources (such as jute, cotton, palms, and cactus) and animal-based sources (such as silk and
wool), which possess advantageous physical and chemical properties. Incorporating natural
fibers with industrial (synthetic) fibers represents a significant step toward hybridization.
In this study, we aim to present suitable solutions through the analysis of tested specimens to
develop new materials characterized by excellent mechanical performance. The goal is to
produce sustainable fibers that, on the one hand, reduce environmental impact by recyclability,
and corrosion resistance, and, on the other hand, are cost-effective.
In fact, natural fiber composites (NFC) have become a promising alternative to synthetic fiber
composites, as the industry increasingly relies on cultivable fibers, including jute, to promote
sustainability and eco-friendliness.
