Abstract

In this work agricultural wastages such as sugarcane leaves and almond shell particles were reused as reinforcement in polymer material. This paper revealed the effect of sugarcane leaves, and almond shell particle on mechanical property of polymer composites. Sugarcane leaves were chopped to size of 50mm*50mm and almond shell of average 1mm particle size were used to fabricate epoxy polymer composite by hand layup technique. Tensile, flexural and impact test were carried out to evaluate the mechanical property of the composite. Scanning electron microscopy study shows that uniform particle distribution and good bonding between particles and epoxy polymer.
