Summary:Natural fiber‐reinforced composites are generally known as eco‐friendly, long‐lasting, and recyclable materials. This study characterizes cellulosic Helianthus tuberosus L. fiber for polymer‐based green composites for the first time. Helianthus tuberosus L. fiber has many advantages as a reinforcement material in polymer‐based composites. For example, the high roughness of the fiber surface increases the locking into the composite body. One of the most critical advantages is its high thermal stability temperature of 247.3°C. Other advantages of the Helianthus tuberosus L. fiber are high cellulose content, high crystallinity, and high tensile strength. The hollow fiber structure allows its use in insulation materials. Finally, the high cellulose content of 62.65% supports its usage in various industries, including paper and paperboard manufacturing.
