Description

Plant Fibers, their Composites, and Applications provides a systematic and comprehensive account of recent research into plant fibers, including the synthesis of plant fiber reinforced polymer composites, characterization techniques, and a broad spectrum of applications. Plant fibers have generated great interest among material scientists due to their characteristics, which include availability, low cost, biodegradability, easy processability, excellent thermo-mechanical properties, low acoustic properties. They have been proven to be excellent replacements for synthetic fibers and have found applications in advanced polymer composites. Coverage includes every stage of working with plant fibers, including synthesis, processing, characterization, applications, recycling, and life cycle assessment of plant fibers and their composites. Drawing on work from leading researchers in industry, academia, government and private research institutions across the globe, this is a definitive one-stop reference for anyone working with plant fibers.

Author Biography:

Dr.Sanjay Mavinkere Rangappa received the Ph.D (Faculty of Mechanical Engineering Science) from Visvesvaraya Technological University, Belagavi, India in the year 2017 and Post Doctorate from King Mongkut's University of Technology North Bangkok, Thailand, in the year 2019. He is a Life Member of Indian Society for Technical Education (ISTE) and Associate Member of the Institute of Engineers (India). He is a reviewer for more than 50 international journals, books, and conferences. In addition, he has published more than 70 research articles in high quality international peer reviewed journals, 20+ book chapters, one book, 20 books as an Editor and has also presented research papers at national/international conferences. Jyotishkumar Parameswaranpillai received his PhD in Polymer Science and Technology (Chemistry) from Mahatma Gandhi University, Kerala, India. He has published more than 100 papers, in high quality international peer reviewed journals on polymer nanocomposites, polymer blends, and biopolymers, and has edited 10 books. He has received numerous awards and recognitions including prestigious KMUTNB best researcher award 2019, Kerala State Award for the Best Young Scientist 2016 and INSPIRE Faculty Award 2011. Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Suchart Siengchin is President of King Mongkut's University of Technology North Bangkok (KMUTNB), Thailand. He received his Dipl.-Ing. in Mechanical Engineering from University of Applied Sciences Giessen/Friedberg, Hessen, Germany, M.Sc. in Polymer Technology from University of Applied Sciences Aalen, Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany, M.Sc. in Material Science at the Erlangen-Nürnberg University, Bayern, Germany, Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering (Dr.-Ing.) from Institute for Composite Materials, University of Kaiserslautern, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany and Postdoctoral Research from Kaiserslautern University and School of Materials Engineering, Purdue University, USA. He worked as a Lecturer for Production and Material Engineering Department at The Sirindhorn International Thai-German Graduate School of Engineering (TGGS), KMUTNB. He has been full Professor at KMUTNB and became the President of KMUTNB. He won the Outstanding Researcher Award in 2010, 2012 and 2013 at KMUTNB. He is an author of more than 150 peer reviewed journal articles. Togay Ozbakkaloglu is a Professor at the Ingram School of Engineering of Texas State University, USA. He has published over 250 peer-reviewed research papers in these areas, including over 125 journal articles that appeared in leading disciplinary journals and received over 4000 citations (Scopus). He is Associate Editor for the ASCE Journal of Structural Engineering (the foremost structural engineering journal), Heliyon, Frontiers in Built Environment, and Australian Journal of Civil Engineering. He also serves on the Editorial Board of 12 international journals, including the ASCE Journal of Composites for Construction, the leading journal in his immediate research field of structural applications of FRP composites. Hao Wang is a Professor of materials and manufacturing at the School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering of the University of Southern Queensland, Australia. He is also the Leader of the USQ Materials Research Program Team, and was previously the Director of the Centre for Future Materials, USQ.
