Abstract
The effect of the type of fibres on bending behaviour and impact energy in reinforced acrylic resin was examined. Reinforcing materials such as inorganic glass fibre and cloth and organic polyester and Kevlar fibres were coated with a silane coupling treatment, whereas Co-Cr wire was directly used for the reinforcement. After silane coupling treatment each fibre was added to the heat curing base resin, except polyester fibre. It is concluded that the inclusion of glass linear fibre provides an effective improvement on plain acrylic base resin. An additional way to reinforce the resin matrix was given by the combined use of glass and Kevlar fibres.
