Abstract

Utilizing renewable biomass resources and biocatalytic conversion processes to develop advanced industrial biotechnology is of great significance for building a green, low-carbon and sustainable economy. Research on the preparation of bio-composites from natural hemp fibers and biodegradable plastics has attracted much attention. The resource utilization of agricultural waste is an effective way to improve the rural environment and develop the agricultural circular economy. At the same time, the research on the preparation of biomass composite materials by using wood fiber or wood powder and degradable materials has been carried out. Materials extracted from renewable resources such as plants have become the main force of future material science development. However, the research on the application of biotechnology in plant materials is still relatively small, and there is a lack of systematic reports. This paper reviews the research progress of biomaterials in plant materials. In order to provide reference for the development of plant materials.
