TENSILE BEHAVIOUR OF NATURAL FABRIC REINFORCED COMPOSITE
Abstract eng: Tensile behaviour of natural fabric reinforced composite were investigated in this work. Natural fabric such as flax and jute were considered in bi-axial plain reinforcement in matrix of acrylic resin. The composite are prepared in hand layup techniques. Fabric weight fraction of 7 % was used in the matrix of composite. The samples were treated at RT and 60 °C for the final fabrication. Tensile test were carried out on the samples with dimension 200x30x5.5 mm with span of testing 120 mm using instrument Instron 5967 / 30 kN. The speeds of measurement were considered 5 mm/ min. The result of flax reinforced composite shows better tensile strength of 12 MPa. Scanning electron microscope image analysis was carried out to examine the micro structure effect of composite in terms of tensile strength.
