摘要
In this investigation, the mechanical properties of natural fibers reinforced polyester hybrid fiber reinforced polyester composite were analysed based on the wt % and length of the fibers. The glass fiber polyester composites were also prepared to compare the properties. The fractured surfaces of the composite specimens were investigated using scanning electron microscopy. The tensile and the flexural strength increases with the fiber length and content. On the other hand, the impact strength decreases with the fiber length and content. The experimental results were compared with predicted results using regression model.
