Recently, the attraction on the bio-composite (known as green composites) materials has significantly increased due to the potential of being substitute to conventional materials used in manufacturing industries. Biocomposite materials are produced with natural fibers or natural resins instead of synthesized fibres (carbon, glass, etc fibers) or resins (poly vinyl alcohol, epoxy, etc resins). The bio-based fibers such as jute, sisal, flax, hemp, bamboo, hair, wool, silk etc., are obtained from plants or animals. Also, natural matrix materials such as natural rubber, polyester, etc., are produced from plants. The advantages of bio-composites such as the ease of disposal and being able to composted characteristics of bio-composites after the expiration date which is not generally possible with conventional synthetic materials, being renewable, sustainable have attracted many researcher. Furthermore, the comparable mechanical properties of bio-composites make feasible for application to many different products. This study reviews the, recent trends, mechanical and chemical properties, and application of bio-composites in recent years.
