Reinforced Composite

Due to desirable properties and its role of natural and manmade fibers reinforced composite materials are growing in a faster rate in the field of engineering and technology. Now-a-days the treated natural composites are serves better in terms of corrosive resistance, and other desirable properties when compared to the traditional materials. The main aim of this experimental study is to fabricate and investigate the mechanical properties such as tensile strengths, flexural strengths and impact strengths of NaOH treated and hemp-banana-glass fibers reinforced hybrid composites. From the experimental results, it has been noted that the treated hemp-banana-glass fibers reinforced hybrid epoxy composites exhibited superior properties and used as an alternate material for synthetic fiber reinforced composite materials. Morphological studies are carried out to analyze the interfacial characteristics, internal structures, fiber failure mode and fractured surfaces by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis.

Composite material has many excellent properties, current, receives special attention was paid to its mechanical properties. By adding the dispersed phase can make the strength of the composites than did not join the dispersed phase of pure matrix material strength several times or several times. Composite materials are often called fiber ( or other dispersed phase) reinforced composite materials.

The Matrix

Abstract Carbon fiber reinforced composite materials offer greater rigidity and strength than any other composites, but are much more expensive than e.g. glass fiber reinforced composite materials. Continuous fibers in polyester give the best properties. The fibers carry mechanical loads, the matrix transfers the loads to the fibers, is ductile and tough, protect the fibers from handling and environmental damage. The working temperature and the processing conditions of the composite depend on the matrix material. Polyesters are the most commonly used matrices because they offer good properties at relatively low cost. The strength of the composite increases along with the fiber-matrix ratio and the fiber orientation parallel to the load direction. The longer the fibers, the more effective the load transfer is. Increasing the thickness of the laminate leads to a reduction in the strength of the composite and the modulus of strength, since the likelihood of the presence of defects increases. The aim of this research is to analyze the change in the mechanical properties of the polymer composite. The polymer composite consists of carbon fibers and epoxy resin. The change in compressive strength in the longitudinal and transverse directions of the fiber orientation was evaluated. At the same time, the influence of the wet environment on the change of mechanical properties of the composite was evaluated.

Reinforced Composite

In the present work coconut sheath fiber has been used to prepare the composite material with epoxy resin. First the untreated coconut fiber was used to prepare the composite material then the coconut sheath fibers were treated with NAOH to modify the fiber properties. Then the effect of fiber loading and alkali treatment were evaluated and investigated. The mechanical properties of alkali treated fibers found to be higher than the untreated coconut sheath fiber reinforced composite materials. The water absorption properties of alkali treated fibers were found to be higher than the untreated coconut sheath fiber reinforced composite materials.
