Preface
The terms green composites, biocomposites, ecocomposites all broadly refer to materials that fabricate or developed by using natural fibres with synthetic matrix, natural fibres in biopolymers, synthetic fibres with biopolymers, etc. Green biocomposites attracted academicians, researchers and industries to develop green and sustainable products due to environmental awareness and strict government regulations. Green composites are eco-friendly and economical materials that can serve as an alternative to synthetic fibre reinforced polymer composites or plastic materials available in markets for different applications. Currently, green biocomposites are already available in markets for various applications such as automotive, construction,
