Because their performance is highly dependent on their material qualities, porous materials are widely used in engineering, environmental, biomedical, and energy applications. Despite a growing body of research, no prior review has methodically combined bibliometric analysis with a thorough assessment of characterization methods based on the material attributes under investigation. Thus, the purpose of this study is to identify research trends, analyze how characterization techniques have evolved, and assess their contributions to the material properties of porous materials. A mixed strategy that integrated a modified PICO-based systematic review with bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer was used. 41 studies published between 2014 and 2024 were chosen for qualitative analysis after a thorough screening process. Eight research clusters were found using bibliometric mapping, with the most popular subjects being characterisation, porosity, pore size, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). According to the systematic review, porosity (25), mechanical (20), thermal (8), and optical (5) qualities were explored more frequently than structural parameters (38 research). Because they offer thorough information on morphology, microstructure, and phase composition—all of which have a direct impact on material performance—SEM, pore size analysis, and phase characterization continue to be the principal methods. In order to promote future developments in porous material characterisation, this review summarizes existing characterization methodologies, points out research gaps, and highlights the benefits of combining bibliometric mapping with systematic review techniques.
