“…According to Yang et al, (2018), the combustibility of a biocomposite depends on several factors, including the type of raw material used in its manufacture (fibers, polymers and additives), density of the composite, structure, thermal conductivity and humidity. For Parkunam et al, (2020), the most common strategy for improving thermal properties is to apply different types of flame retardants during the manufacturing process or in the finishing stage. Bar et al, (2015) cite inorganic salts, a mixture of borax and boric acid, ammonium salt of strong acids such as di-ammonium phosphate, ammonium sulfamate, ammonium bromide as examples of nondurable flame-retardant chemicals.…”

The growing environmental concern for the rational use of natural resources has driven the development of new materials. Biocomposites have receiving increasing attention due to the enormous potential to replace synthetic materials in certain applications, together with the environmental gains offered. The present work aimed at review studies that developed Biocomposites and to carry out a bibliometric analysis using a keyword: “Biocomposite”. Based on the bibliometric analysis using the VOSviewer software and the Scopus and Web of Science databases, it was possible to verify the number of publications over the years as well as the countries and authors with the most published articles on the topic. Thereafter, a review providing an overview regarding the compositions of biocomposites, topics that need improvement, characterization properties, main applications and environmental benefits obtained with their use was carried out. The obtained results showed that needs for the development of new researches in order to improve biocomposites when compared to synthetic composites.
