Abstract

Problems related to the production of composite materials based on synthetic polymer matrices reinforced with natural fibers of different classes are considered. The main natural fibers of plant and animal origin used to create polymer composites are characterized, and the properties of the composites are described. The advantages and disadvantages of using natural fibers for the production of polymeric composite materials for various purposes are discussed.
