Summary, etc. <p style="text-align: justify;">In this study, various unconventional fibres have been successfully extracted from crop residue <em>of Canna indica, Areca catechu </em>sheath<em>, Caryota urens </em>spadix<em> </em>petiole<em>,</em> and <em>Abelmoschus esculentus</em>, and their physical, chemical, thermal, and mechanical properties are studied. High cellulose contents of the fibres (20.5-67 wt%) provide better tensile strength (525-563MPa) and ensure better bonding with the matrix. Moreover, the low density of the fibre (1.37-1.44 gcm<sup>−3</sup>) makes it an alternative to hazardous synthetic fibres. The lower crystal size (0.5-12.9nm) structure tends to absorb more water than the higher crystal size structure. The thermogravimetric analysis confirms its stability up to 150-300°C, which is higher than the polymerization temperature. These characteristics show that  the fibre may be effortlessly converted into nonwoven fabrics.</p>
