Abstract
This paper deals with the effect of moisture absorption on single coconut sheath fiber and single glass fibre. Additionally, the moisture effect in fibre reinforced unsaturated polyester composites like coconut sheath (CS) and Glass mat (GM) composite. Initially, CS and GM fibre reinforced polyester composite were produced through hand layup followed by compression moulding method. CS/UPR and GM/UPR composites were made through water treatment by dipping those composites in ordinary water for various time intervals at room temperature to study the water absorption effect. At different time periods, the absorption of water showed gradual increment. The effect of water gain in percentage for CS and GM was observed. From this experiment, it is concluded that the effect of water gain in CS/UPR composite is higher than GM/UPR composite.
