| Recently the use of natural fiber reinforced polymer composite in the various sectors has increased tremendously. This is due to the environmental problems and health hazard possessed by the synthetic fiber during disposal and manufacturing. The main aim of this paper is to review the work carried out by using kenaf fiber composite. The reinforcement made by using the kenaf fiber shows its potential to replace the glass fiber composite. In addition to the physical and mechanical properties, processing methods and application of kenaf fiber composite is also discussed. |
