Natural Fiber Reinforced Polymeric Composites serve as an important alternative to manmade fiber reinforced polymeric composites because they are abundantly available, economical, recyclable and biodegradable possessing a high mechanical strength and are quickly springing up in terms of research and industrial applications.
The PEDOT/PyBA composite serves as a stable host matrix for large negatively charged polymolybdate inorganic species.
The composite served as cathode in lithium-sulfur batteries shows its capacity as high as 745 mAh g−1 at 0.2C after 20 cycles.
The textured surface has a crater-like pattern ranging from 0.2 to 2 μm, in which carbon-dielectric nano-composite serves as the thermal stable skeleton material to protect Cu and Cu2O particles embedded inside the matrix.
The carbon component present in the composite serves as a physical barrier preventing the aggregation of the MoO3 nanoparticles, provides structural flexibility for accommodation of large volume changes on electrochemical cycling, and offers good electronic conductivity for electrode reaction, ensuring the observed vast improvement of the electrochemical properties of MoO3/C anode.
Cu-doped TiO2 or CuO/TiO2 composite serves as an efficient photocatalytic material in the decomposition of gas-phase alcohols, acid orange 88, methylene blue, etc. [13, 14, 15].
The nanotubes, resembling tiny, vertically-aligned stitches, worked themselves within the crevices of each composite layer, serving as a scaffold to hold the layers together.
Pyrolyzed poly-aniline graphene nano sheets (PAGNS) composite was investigated serving as a novel anode material for lithium storage.
It is suggested that rGO/HAp hybrid composites can serve as biocompatible, transferable, and implantable scaffolds for bone regeneration because these graphene-based composite materials have the potential to promote spontaneous osteogenesis in the absence of any osteogenic factors.
The substitution of Ni in the composites mainly serves as the following objectives: increasing the electric conductivity and improving the structural integrity.
