Now-a-days technologists are more interested opted as one of the prime research in the natural fibers in order to save the entire eco system. In this reason behind, technologists doing vigorous materials characterization on newly available natural fibers and find out the newer natural fibers to increase the increasing demand on the materials science. Since natural fibers are abundantly available in nature, as well processing and disposable after use also would not affect the eco system as such observed in the synthetic fibers, because of this reason natural fibers are widely opted for various purposes. Moreover, plant are rich in fibers and easily cultivated throughout the year, apart from that it has the better weight to stiffness ratio and not hazardous to human health. Besides, natural fibres provide enhanced thermal and acoustic wadding as compared to synthetic fibers. Additionally, fibers gotten from the numerous plants are processed and mixed with (Reinforced) various set of matrix materials to enhance their physical and thermal properties. This current research article examines various natural fibers material currently being used in the industry and their current eminence in the specific research activity.
