Abstract

Presently, research focuses on the study of Corn Husk Fibers (CHF) and their composite, also on the fiber drawing process and some of the properties such as chemical, physical, and mechanical, moreover concentrating on biodegradable natural fibers. Corn husk is a Natural fiber that has gained much scope and attention because of its abundant availability, low cost, and economical. Some of the significant properties are high strength, light density, environmentally friendly, nonabrasive, good mechanical properties and biodegradability. In this review, a detailed study of Corn husk fibers and composite and their various properties are encompassed because of their environmental friendliness, biodegradability and strength. Moreover, the impact of fibers on the physical and chemical, mechanical properties, and moisture absorption ability of composite materials have been also included. Natural fibers like corn husk fibers require chemical treatment so that their properties can be improved.
