Abstract
The use of bio-based residues is continuously increasing due to raising cost of their management and moreover, ligno-cellulosic agricultural by-products are a copious and cheap source for cellulose fibres. Agro-based biofiber have the composition, properties and structure that make them suitable for uses such as composite, textile, pulp and paper manufacture. The present work aims at preparing composites using corn husk fibres that are overlapped alternatively on glass fibres along with 10:1 weight proportionate epoxy resin and hardener. The composites are then tested for density and impact strength. Composite with higher glass fibre proved to be denser and also had higher impact strength when compared to other compositions.
