【 摘 要 】

The use of lignocellulosic fibers and theirconstituents, as raw materials in the production of polymeric and compositematerials, represent an exceptional opportunity of sustainable technologicaldevelopment. In the present report works that discuss promising alternativesof obtaining and use of materials such as cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin,cellulose nanocrystals and biocomposites were revised. The advance in the useof biomass can be, in a near future, capable of going beyond the applicationdifficulties of these vast materials, especially in relation to the economicalunviability, by the production of high performance polymeric and composite materials.This advance would represent a higher profitability to some areas of agrobusiness,especially the sector of biofuels, which produces elevated amounts of biomasswaste.
