Unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) is one of the first commercialized polymer matrices for composites reinforced with glass fibers, but has remained popular to this day. To reduce their environmental impact, natural fibers have been used as reinforcements. Researchers all over the world are still interested in these composites, and numerous papers have been published in the last four decades. Using bibliometric analysis, this work provides compiled, structured, and relevant information about the evolution and current state of these materials. This first study on UPR biocomposites based on bibliometric analysis examined 531 published papers identified in the Scopus database from 1982 to July 2022. An analysis of the most active states, leading institutions, and leading authors is followed by the identification of key areas such as the most common natural fibers used as reinforcements, fiber treatments, and composite design parameters such as processing techniques; recently, composite testing; and technological applications. The findings emphasize the importance of staying active in this global field and provide information on novel promising topics for future research.

“…Zeleke et al have made PMC from unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) reinforced with pineapple leaf fibre with a weight ratio of 70% and 30%. It was observed that the tensile strength, compressive strengths, and water absorption were 43.13 MPa, 39.78 MPa, and 2.52%, respectively [14] . Another study by Reddy et al, through a finite element analysis, demonstrated the success of using pineapple leaf fibre with epoxy resin and graphite filler as PMC materials [15] .…”

Using natural fibres is often recommended as polymer composite materials owing to their potential to reduce the pollution of synthetic material waste. This study aimed to obtain the physical properties of unsaturated polyester resin matrix composite containing calcium carbonate fillers of 15 and 30 parts per hundred weights of the resin and natural pineapple leaf fibre of the amount 20% and 30% of the composite weight. The composite samples were three millimetres thick, with the pineapple leaf fibres arranged in one longitudinal direction. Some parameters observed included density, water absorption, response to fire, hardness, tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, and impact strength. The results showed that adding calcium carbonate filler into the matrix increased the density, water absorption, hardness, and modulus of elasticity of the composite. However, it reduced the flame propagation rate, tensile strength, and impact strength. Also, the use of pineapple leaf fibre contributed to increased water absorption, rate of flame propagation, tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, and impact strength of the composite, but it reduced the density and hardness. As these samples use economical materials, they are likely valuable for building materials that do not require high mechanical properties, especially guttering materials.

“…In this research, wavelet analysis was used to differentiate between various structural status. The fake ceiling board biocomposite was designed and created by Zeleke et al [ 11 ] using unsaturated polyester as the resin and pineapple fiber as the reinforcement material. They found that biocomposite made with 30 vol% of pineapple fiber is discovered to have a maximum tensile strength of 43.13 MPa, a compressive strength of 39.78 MPa, a bending strength of 38.65 MPa, and a minimum water absorbency of 2.52%.…”

The aim of this study is to develop a light weight hybrid biocomposite using pineapple and Kevlar fiber with peanut husk cellulose in vinyl ester resin for applications in unmanned aerial vehicles. This study focuses on how the silane treatment on fiber and cellulose particle influences the mechanical, fatigue and low velocity impact properties of this hybrid biocomposites. Using hand lay‐up technique, the biocomposite was prepared with cellulose loading ranging from 1 to 5 vol%. The results revealed that the 5 vol% of cellulose added composite had an improved tensile, impact, flexural, hardness and ILSS of 161 MPa, 224 MPa, 6.8 J, 84 shore‐D and 21.4 MPa. Moreover, the biocomposite with the inclusion of 3 vol% cellulose had an improved fatigue life count of 42 697, 29 821, 22 381 and 18 164 at 25%, 50%, 75% and 90% of UTS. Similarly, the 3 vol% cellulose reinforced composite showed an improved low velocity impact toughness of 12.36 J. The obtained results clearly indicated that these mechanically strengthened and highly toughened biocomposites could be used as working material for number of applications, especially in making of UAVs for the aerospace industry, automotive components for the transportation sector and structural material in domestic infrastructure.
