Investigation of Tensile Behavior of Sisal and Coir Reinforced Hybrid Composites Using Vinyl Ester Resin

Abstract:

Composite materials play a major role in engineering application due to its light weight, good stiffness, high specific strength and flexible nature. Because of these properties, fibers are interbreed with glass fiber for the applications in the automobile, aircraft industries and household appliances are wider. This paper deals with fabrication and investigation of tensile behavior of hybrid composites using vinyl ester resin. Natural fibers, sisal and coir fibers which are commixed with vinyl ester with a volume fraction of 0.4 and 0.5 using hand lay-up process. The tensile strength of sisal-coir-glass composites was found to be better than the other two combinations of composite.
