Natural Fiber (NF) becomes a vital part of the various industries such as textile, automotive, packaging, construction, etc. nowadays. This is a review of the chemical composition and mechanical properties of a wide variety of NFs including abaca fiber, bagasse fiber, bamboo fiber, banana fiber, coconut fiber, coir fiber, cotton fiber, flax fiber, hemp fiber, jute fiber, pineapple fiber, ramie fiber and sisal fiber. The chemical properties include cellulose, lignin, hemicellulose, pectin, wax, moisture, ash and microfibrillar angle. The physical properties include tensile strength (TS) and elastic modulus (E) and density (ρ). This paper discovers the significant ranges of chemical properties: cellulose, lignin, hemicellulose, pectin, wax, moisture, ash and microfibrillar angle and mechanical properties: tensile strength, elastic modulus and density.
