Increased use of natural materials in composites has led to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and the carbon footprint of composites. In addition to the benefits obtained from green materials, there are some challenges in working with them, such as poor compatibility between the reinforcing natural fiber and matrix and the relatively high moisture absorption of natural fibers. Green composites can be a suitable alternative for petroleum-based materials. However, before this can be accomplished, a number of issues need to be addressed, including poor interfacial adhesion between the matrix and natural fibers, moisture absorption, poor fire resistance, low impact strength, and less durability. Several researchers have studied the properties of natural fiber composites. These investigations have resulted in developing several procedures for modifying natural fibers and resins. To address the increasing demand to use eco-friendly materials in different applications, an up-to-date review of natural fiber and resin types and sources, modification, and processing techniques, physical and mechanical behaviors, applications, life-cycle assessment, and other properties of green composites is required to provide a better understanding of the behavior of green composites.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessDynamic-mechanical propertiesFinite-element-analysisBanana fiberGreen compositesTensile propertiesJute fiberChemical treatmentsBehaviorWasteOptimizationCompositeEco-friendlyFiberReinforced matrixScience & technologyTechnologyMaterials science, textilesMaterials scienceReview00096300830000116318310310.1177/24723444221147365
