## Abstract Natural fiber–biopolymer composites have been prepared using flax and poly(3‐hydroxylbutyrate) bipolyesters (PHB). The biopolyesters consist of the homopolyester PHB and its copolymers with 5 and 12% 3‐hydroxyvalerate (PHV). These biopolymer–natural fiber composites provide structures t

Natural fibers are emerging as low cost, lightweight and apparently environmentally superior alternatives to glass fibers in composites. We review select comparative life cycle assessment studies of natural fiber and glass fiber composites, and identify key drivers of their relative environmental pe
