Abstract

In this research work, an investigation was made on the Young’s Modulus and thermal conductivity of fiberglass material reinforced with epoxy resin and hardener gum. Composites are made up with epoxy resin: hardener gum mixture of 10:1 ratio. Dog bone type specimen with end tab samples were prepared in different layers to find the Young’s modulus by center-loaded method and thermal conductivity by Lee’s apparatus method. Experimental results show that the Young’s Modulus increases when increasing the number of layers and amount of epoxy resin and hardener gum mixture apply on it. However, the thermal conductivity depends on the thickness of fiberglass mat reinforced with hardener gum and epoxy resin mixture.
