Abstract
In this paper, detailed study and work have been done on the investigation of mechanical properties of glass fibre reinforced honeycomb panels. In this paper comparison between shredded E-glass fibre reinforced with polypropylene honeycomb panel and Woven E-glass fibre reinforced with polypropylene, honeycomb panel has been done. Fabrication of both types of specimens has been done using hand lay-up method. Specimens are machined into ASTM standards for testing. Tensile, flexural, Compressive, wear tests have been done. The density of the two specimens is calculated and compared. Wear test has been for different loadings (20N, 40N, 60N) and different rpms (200rpm, 400rpm, 600rpm) done on Pinion disk tribometer, flexural bending test has been done on three-point bending test machine. Tension and compression tests are done on a universal testing machine. In tension test, bending test and wear resistance the Woven E-glass fibre reinforced with polypropylene honeycomb panel specimen is having better results when compared with shredded E-glass fibre reinforced with polypropylene honeycomb panel. In compression applications, shredded E-glass fibre reinforced with polypropylene honeycomb panel is better than Woven E-glass fibre reinforced with polypropylene honeycomb panel.
