Opis

In the past few years, there has been a renewed interest in using natural fibres as reinforcements and plenty of research and innovation has been developed in natural fibre reinforced composites for economical and environmental benefits. Natural fibre has some unique properties like bio-degradability, non-toxicity and available from renewable sources. In most of the foreign countries natural fibre based composites are being used on several applications like boat manufacturing, commercial vehicle manufacturing for reducing vehicle weight, improving fuel efficiency and in automobile interior manufacturing for being biodegradable and as alternative to glass fibre based composites. In this study, nine different composites were developed by flax, jute and glass reinforced with bioepoxy resin. Static Mechanical properties like flexural and impact and dynamic mechanical properties by DMA and thermal conductivity has been studied for all composites.
