As a natural and environmentally friendly fiber, sheep wool has an extraordinary place among all textile fibers due to its unique properties such as high thermal insulation properties, good sound insulation and absorption, self-extinguishing, high flame resistance, low weight and high strength. Sheep wool fibers are traditionally used in clothing and textiles, but they can be used in various applications. One of the vital industrial applications of sheep wool fibers is to employ them as reinforcing fillers in polymer composites using thermal insulation and sound and acoustic absorbers. This review paper aims to introduce sheep wool fiber and present it as a high-performance fiber (HPF) in the role of a natural and low-cost alternative to synthetic polymer fibers. In this regard, an attempt has been made to conduct a comprehensive review of polymer-sheep wool composites as thermal insulation and sound absorber.
