Fabrication and properties valuation of Natural fiber and filler-based hybrid-polymer composites

Abstract

Because of biodegradability, low weight, non-da000nger, instability, decreased condition, contamination, little effort, and simplicity of recyclability, natural fibre polymer composites are now being utilized in place of synthetic fibre reinforced polymer composites. By altering the fibre and epoxy percentages, to find the effect of sisal fibre content on mechanical characteristics of composites is the objective of research. Melt-mixing was used to make the composite, which was then laid out by hand layup method. The purpose of this research is to look at fibre oriented reinforced composite polymer nano composite materials that mix with hybrid composites such as JUTE, SISAL/EGG SHELL, and epoxy polymer in the ratio of sisal fibre 70% + jute 20% + Egg shell 10% and sisal fibre 60% + jute 20% + Egg shell 20% by volume. The mechanical characteristics were calculated by performing tests on the specimen’s tension, hardness, and flexural qualities in line with ASTM standards.
