Abstract
The world’s tendency toward utilizing reused materials requests new items from natural resources and waste polymers. In this work, composites made from waste rubber particles (average particle size: 320 mesh) and sisal fiber in unidirectional form with matrix material as epoxy resin were prepared by hand lay-up method & investigated the mechanical properties for the influence of waste rubber particle loading in natural fiber composite. The effect of different loading of waste rubber particle (0,5,10,20 %wt) on the tensile and flexural strength was investigated. The results represent that 5%wt waste rubber particle loading composite shows maximum tensile and flexural strength & further increase in rubber particle loading shows decrease in tensile & flexural strength.
