Summary: | Rice straw fibre was utilized for unidirectional (UD) composites. In this study, the effects of compression temperature, duration, pressure, and fibre volume fraction on the mechanical properties of composites were investigated, respectively. The composite with optimal mechanical properties was prepared at a temperature of 180oC, pressure of 125 kg.cm-2 for 10 min, and at a fibre volume fraction of 40%. Mg(OH)2 was found to be an appropriate additive to enhance the flame retardancy of the composite. Interestingly, this agent also improved the mechanical and thermal insulation properties of the obtained composite
