Green or Biocomposite materials encompass biopolymers and natural fibers (NFs) from renewable resources, which is helped to eliminate non-renewable waste, reduce raw material usage, and lessen greenhouse gas emissions. This paper aimed to assess and develop specific biocomposite in terms of mechanic...
