Abstract |
|
The majority of developing countries are extremely rich in natural resources such as natural fibers. In this project hemp, kenaf, banana and bamboo fibres are taken for the development of hybride composite material. The main objective of present work is to investigate the mechanical properties of hemp-kenaf, hemp-banana and hemp- bamboo reinforced composites at same weight fraction. In this process, the fibre were extracted by manual process. The fibres are treated with 5% of sodiam hydroxide for 1hr.while overall fibre weight fraction was fixed as 0.4WF.the mould used for fabrication is made up of wood with a de-bonding agent applaid on the inner side. The composites were fabricated by hand lay-up technique. The developed hemp-kenaf, hemp-banana, hemp-banana, hemp-bamboo hybride composites were cut into specimens for tensile impact and flexural tests. It was found that hemp-kenaf composites exhibitad better tensile properties then hemp-banana& hemp-bamboo composite. All composites showed coparable impact properties but in flexural strength hemp-kenaf appears to out-perform other two composites. |
