Vinyl Ester-Based Biocomposites provides a comprehensive review on the recent developments, characterization, and applications of natural fiber-reinforced vinyl ester biocomposites. It also addresses the importance of natural fiber reinforcement on the mechanical, thermal, and interfacial properties.
The book explores the widespread applications of natural fibre-reinforced vinyl ester composites ranging from the aerospace sector, automotive parts, construction and building materials, sports equipment, and household appliances. Investigating the moisture absorption and ageing on the physio-chemical, mechanical, and thermal properties of the vinyl ester-based composites, the book also considers the influence of hybridization, fibre architecture, and fibre-ply orientation.
The book serves as a useful reference for researchers, graduate students, and engineers in the field of polymer composites.
