Abstract

The main objective of this study is to identify the suitability of Dehydrated Coconut Husk (DCH) and Particle Coconut Fibre Sheet (PBCS) for manufacturing the electrical insulation boards. The samples are collected and tested in two different approaches using Universal Testing Machine (UTM). The results show that the PBCS yield better results terms of tensile strength, impact strength, and flexural strength with values of 26.34 Mpa, 31.9 Mpa, and 44.9 Mpa, respectively. It is also evident that the PBCS based natural fibres having good mechanical properties and it is best suitable for making electrical insulation boards.
