Composites can be grouped into two basic types: price-driven, for which costs dictate the market, and performance-driven, for which properties dictate the markets. In general, biobased composites are considered by most to be only price-driven commodity products. Performance driven biobased composites with uniform densities, durability in adverse environments, and high strength can be produced by using fiber technology, high performance adhesives, and fiber modification to overcome dimensional instability, biodegradability, flammability, and degradation caused by ultraviolet light, acids, and bases. Products with complex shapes can also be produced using flexible fiber mats, which can be made by nonwoven needling or thermoplastic fiber melt matrix technologies. The wide distribution, renewability, and recyclability of biobased composites can expand the market for low-cost composites and high performance materials for both interior and exterior automotive applications. Biobased materials can also be combined with materials such as glass, metals, plastics, inorganics, and synthetic fibers to produce new composites that are tailored for end-use requirements.
