Recent progress in biobased synthetic textile fibers

The use of synthetic fibers in our daily life is growing continuously; however, the excessive dependence these chemical on petroleum-based chemicals will lead to large consumption non-renewable resources. scarcity oil resources, economic and environmental problems, reliance a few oil-rich countries, predicted depletion Therefore, research development biobased materials reduce fossil fuels have become increasingly important. Biobased fiber has low carbon footprint synthesis process because its raw are derived from biomass. In addition, most excellent biodegradability, which can be composted degraded natural environments or by microorganisms with without specific conditions. However, all cannot proven biodegradable, so biodegradability an important driving force for progress fibers. past, was obtained, extracted, synthesized food crops, soon replaced non-food crops. With protection, sustainability, resource conservation, it necessary make crops residues obtain textile even develop ideal that negatives, such as moss CO 2 . Besides, there huge potential used sustainable clothing medical textiles due their non-toxicity, skin friendliness, antibacterial properties. This review paper introduces fibers, summarizes recent development, clarifies key concepts this domain.
