MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF FIBREED COMPOSITE OF POLYPROPYLENE

Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 3

Abstract

 This research aims to study the mechanical properties of polypropylene composite reinforced by chopped glass fibres with different reinforcement percentage (15%, 30%, 45%, and 60%) and study the impact strength and compressive strength for obtained composite material .An enhancement was happened in these properties after reinforcement by fibres the value of mechanical properties will increase with increasing percentage of reinforcement. Tensile strength increased from (33 Mpa) to (371 Mpa) and flexural strength from (0.06 Gpa) to (0.2 Gpa) for reinforcing percentages 0% and 60% respectively.
