Development of Rice Husk and Wood Dust Filler Based Polyester Resin Based Composites

Article Preview

Abstract:

Rice husk particles are one of the important agriculture waste products and wood dust particles are left to degrade of its own in many wood cutting industries. In the present work, polyester resin based composite laminates are manufactured by filling the mixed solution consisting of polyester resin with rice husk and wood dust fillers into a mould. The tensile test was conducted in a Universal testing machine as per ASTM: D638 standard. The flexural test was conducted in a Universal testing machine as per ASTM: D790 standard. The hardness test was conducted in a Shore hardness tester as per ASTM D2240 standard.
