Abstract
The need to replace synthetic-derived materials has increased significantly due to the recent advancements in natural fiber reinforced polymer composites in the automotive, gas and oil, construction, electronics, and aerospace industries. However, the widespread use of biomaterials has been limited by their poor flame retardant (FR) properties. There is an increased demand from automotive and aero space industries to produce environmentally friendly bio-based materials with non halogenated self-extinguishing properties. Studies have shown that enhancing the FR characteristics of biomaterials can increase their adaptability in aerospace indus try. This chapter focuses on the emerging technologies utilized for biocomposite, biopolymer, and biofiber production and their applications in the aerospace industry.
