Amodini Harding

This abstract provides a concise summary of the article "Analyzing the Life Cycle of Replacing Glass Fibers in Polymers with Biofibers." The article explores the potential benefits and challenges associated with substituting glass fibers in polymers with biofibers derived from renewable sources. The life cycle analysis encompasses stages such as raw material extraction, fiber production, polymer composite manufacturing, product use, and end-of-life disposal. By comparing the environmental impact and sustainability factors at each stage, the study highlights the potential advantages of biofibers, including reduced energy consumption, lower greenhouse gas emissions, and improved biodegradability. The abstract emphasizes the importance of continued research and development to optimize the performance and processing techniques of biofiber-reinforced composites. Ultimately, the adoption of sustainable alternatives like biofibers contributes to a more environmentally friendly and circular economy in the polymer industry.
