Study of Mechanical Characteristics on Hybrid Composites Using Sisal Fiber and Banana Fiber
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 5
Abstract
Fiber reinforced polymer composites have a wide variety of applications as a class of structural materials because of their advantages such as ease of manufacturing, comparatively minimum cost of production & greater stability. The fiber supports polymers can be either factitious or inherent. In spite of synthetic fibers like glass and carbon acquire high specific strength, their field of applications is limited because of their higher costs of fabrication. In recent times, there is a developing concern in hybrid composites that are made by reinforcement of two or more different types of fibers in a single matrix, considering these materials obtain a limit of properties that cannot be obtained with an appropriate support. In addition, material charges can be slow down by careful selection of supporting fibers. Mechanical properties of a composite material depend on many factors. In this connection, the objective of the present research work is to study the effect of fiber content on the mechanical and water absorption behaviour of sisal and banana fibre reinforced epoxy based hybrid composites.
