Abstract
The unsaturated polyester-based hybrid composites were developed by combining the kapok and glass fabrics into polyester matrix. This study describes the flexural, compressive, and interlaminar shear resistance properties of kapok/glass polyester composites with and without alkali treatment of fabrics. These properties increase with increasing glass fabric content in composite. The mechanical performance of kapok/glass composites is excellent. The kapok/glass hybrid composites exhibited higher flexural and compressive values than sisal/glass and kapok/sisal composites.
