Experimental Study on Mechanical Behaviour of Arhar-Reinforced Composites using GRA with PCA
Journal Title: International Journal of Experimental Research and Review - Year 2023, Vol 36, Issue 7
Abstract
The fiber composite plays a vital role in various applications in the current scenario. Natural fibers provide the desired advantages over synthetic fibers. Fiber composites deliver the exploration of durable, degradable, and lightweight materials. In several industrial sectors, transportation of materials from one place to another place is required. Materials like thermocoal boxes and iron boxes are inefficient in strength, weight, and cost. In order to overcome these, natural fiber-based composites, which give both strength and durability with low weight and cost, are chosen. This work explains the sample preparation using Arhar powder with an addition of reinforcements using the hand lay-up method by obeying the ASTM standards. To analyze the performance of the sample specimen, properties evaluated like Compression, Flexural, and other tests were conducted. GRA (Grey-Relational Analysis) with PCA (Principal-Component Analysis) was employed to carry out the most significant parameters, the most significant factor, and the weights of optimal parameters. Based on the output responses, it is experiential that the most effective parameter and best combination factor at Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS-4%), Guar Gum (8%), and Carboxy methyl cellulose (CMC-8%) with the values of 83.12 MPa compression strength, 61.70 MPa tensile strength and 0.249 joules of Impact strength.
