Summary of vinyl ester resins used in various materials processes and its analysis.

Ref	Filler	Technique/Process	Outcome/Application
[25]	Vinyl and epoxy resin and glass fiber	Hand lay-up techniques used to prepare the composites	Improved the physical and mechanical characteristics
[26]	Vinyl ester (VER), woven flax, and biaxial glass	Resin transfer molding (RTM) and vacuum assisted used for composite fabrication	Few mechanical properties improved/automotive applications
[27]	Vinyl ester, brominated	Fabrication done in naval vessels	Br-VERs improved the mechanical properties than normal VERs
[28]	VER and sizing agents	Double bond contents with carbon fiber used to fabricate composites	The double bond composition of sizing agents increased grafting and crosslink reactions
[29]	VE/acrylamide	Composite made by compression molding machine	Interlaminar and interfacial strength were improved
[30]	VER/bamboo fiber	PMC fabrication	Moisture absorption damages interfacial bonding link
[31]	VE and seed filler	Composite made by compression molding machine	Better mechanical behaviour found due to filler addition
[32]	VE and blend of epoxy	GFRP-composites	Strong interfacial bonding and increased mech properties
