Fibers and Textiles for Fully Bio-Based Fiber Reinforced Materials

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Book cover Narrow and Smart Textiles

Abstract

Textile materials and their modifications for use in bio-based fiber reinforced materials are presented. Main results are related to hydrophobic and antimicrobial functionalization, to make the natural fiber materials more suitable for application in composite materials. To realize a fully bio-based composite, it is the challenge to evaluated also bio-based finishing agents offering the wished properties.
