Sustainable Polymer Composite Materials for Civil Infrastructure: Materials, Performance, Durability, and Future Perspectives—A Critical Review
Abstract: The increasing need for sustainable, durable, and performance-based construction materials has led to the emergence and use of polymer composite materials in civil infrastructure. The benefits of such materials include the strength-to-weight ratio, being non-corrosive, flexible designs, and lower maintenance. This review focuses on the sustainable polymer composite materials, such as the fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials, the natural fiber-reinforced polymer composites, the recycled plastic composite, and bio-based polymer composites, …
