As industries increasingly seek lighter, stronger, and more sustainable alternatives to metals, ceramics, and traditional thermosetting composites, thermoplastic-based composites have positioned themselves at the forefront of innovation. This book provides a comprehensive exploration of engineering thermoplastic composites, focusing on their mechanical and thermal properties when reinforced with both synthetic and natural fibers. Covering a wide range of high-performance materials including polyamide 66, polyamide 6, polyamide 11, polycarbonate, poly(phenylene ether), polysulfone, thermoplastic polyester, poly(phenylene sulfide), polyetherimide, thermoplastic polyketone, and polybenzimidazole the chapters explore the critical aspects of material design, processing, and characterization. With a structured focus on understanding material behavior and optimizing composite performance, this book serves as an essential resource for engineers, researchers, academicians, undergraduates, and postgraduates involved in materials science, mechanical engineering, polymer engineering, and allied fields. By addressing the growing demand for innovative, lightweight, and high-strength materials, this book aims to bridge the gap between research advancements and industrial applications, inspiring new developments in material design and technology. **Order the printed version and SAVE 50% on the e-book with Print eBook**
