Green and sustainable alternatives to petroleum-based plastics can reduce environmental pollution and alleviate the resource crisis. Reed straw (Rs) is a rapidly growing, eco-friendly, low-cost, and natural fiber with great potential as a sustainable resource. However, the development of high-performance plastic substitutes from Rs is challenging owing to its weak interfacial bonding. Herein, inspired by the structure of reinforced concrete, a top-down strategy is adopted using a simple and rapid physical-filling and directional-assembly method...
