Critical Review of the Parameters Affecting the Effectiveness of Moisture Absorption Treatments Used for Natural Composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that these treatments do not guarantee a sufficient improvement of the moisture absorption properties of natural composites, and the moisture treatments should be applied under the consideration of the following parameters: (i) type of hosting matrix; (ii) type natural fiber; (iii) loading of natural fiber, (iv) the hybridization of natural fibers with mineral/synthetic counterparts; (v) implantation of nanofillers.
