Abstract

Abstract The main objective of this article is to study the utilization of natural fibres in polymer composites. In this article concentrated on reinforcement of polymer plastics with different proportions of banana and glass fibre composites. Since, epoxy based hybrid (glass/banana) composites play vital role in developing light weight structural materials, this study focuses on utilizing glass/banana as reinforcement fiber loading fiber is constant in epoxy resin. This composite was fabricated using hand lay-up process this influence of glass/banana loading on the mechanical properties of was studied initially. Test results revealed that the composite glass/banana composition has better mechanical properties.
