Tensile Properties of Sun Hemp, Banana and Sisal Fiber Reinforced Polyester Composites

Abstract

Experiments are conducted to find out the tensile properties of short sun hemp, banana, and sisal fiber reinforced composites. Length of these natural fibers and fiber weight are varied and are impregnated in polyester resin to prepare tensile test specimen. Optimum values of fiber length and fiber weight ratios are found through experimental results. Analysis is done on these results.
