Abstract
The main objective of this work was to investigate the effect of natural additives with an animal and vegetable source in the form of (short fibers and particle) on the mechanical and thermal properties for epoxy. (wood dust, date palm fiber, cow bones and sheep wool) were selected as natural additives with different weight ratios such as (%5,%15,%25) reinforcements for the epoxy matrix based composites, which were produced by the hand lay-up technique. mechanical test such compression strength and thermal properties such thermal conductivity were carried out according to ASTM standards to characterized these composites. It was found that the mechanical and thermal properties can be increased or decreased depending on the type of material additives, its origin, as well as the weight percentage used.
