MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF COMPOSITE MATERIAL REINFORCING BY NATURAL-SYNTHETIC FIBERS
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
The mechanical properties of araldite matrix composites reinforced with hybrid palms - kevlar fibers were evaluated. There are indications that the incorporation of both fibers into a single matrix which is araldite resin will stabilize mechanical properties and lowering manufacturing costs. In this research the impact strength, tensile strength, flexural strength, and hardness were studied for composite material reinforced with hybrid fibers for palms and Kevlar .These fibers were mixed with araldite resin in different reinforcement percentage (20%, 40%, and 60%) and the effect on the above mechanical properties were studied. It has shown an improvement in these mechanical properties after reinforcement by fibers the value of mechanical properties will increase with increasing percentage of reinforcement.
