Best journals to publish natural fiber reinforced composites research

Natural fiber reinforced composites (NFRCs) are materials that combine natural fibers (e.g., jute, hemp, flax) with a polymer matrix, offering a renewable and lightweight alternative to synthetic fiber composites. This field has seen growing interest due to environmental concerns and the need for sustainable materials in automotive, construction, and packaging industries. Our analysis covers 20 journals and 2,364 indexed papers, providing a comprehensive overview of publication trends, citation patterns, and research hotspots. Key aspects include fiber treatment methods, mechanical performance, biodegradability, and applications. The data reveals a steady increase in publications over the past decade, with significant contributions from materials science, engineering, and environmental science disciplines. This page helps researchers identify suitable journals for their work by comparing metrics such as impact factor, acceptance rate, and review speed.
