Mechanical Properties of Composite Material Made of Natural Fibers

Abstract

A composite material is a material which is composed of two or more materials. There are various kinds of composite materials. Among them, the natural fiber reinforced composite materials are notable as they are more advantageous over other composite materials. The natural fiber reinforced composite materials are also eco-friendly, as a result our environment will remain safe. The natural fiber like jute, polythene etc. are very much available in our subcontinent. These natural fibers occupy good mechanical properties as a result we can fabricate more standard quality reinforced fiber. These fibers give excellent result in tensile test and compact test. There are many advanced techniques for fabricating composite material using resin and hardener mixture. Generally, templates of various shapes are used in order to fabricate composite material by using resin and hardener mixture. Among all the processes, vacuum infusion process is the suitable one. A good quality composite material can be fabricated by adopting vacuum infusion process as this process has many advantages over the other techniques of fabrication of composite material. Also, the composite fabricated from vacuum infusion process gives good results on various experiment rather than composite fabricated from the other typical processes.
