Abstract
The waste natural such as groundnut shell, rice husk, eggshell, pistachio shells, etc., are regionally available. All these waste natural has good mechanical characteristics and can be employed more efficiently in the improvement of composite materials for different uses. This paper shows the study of the impact test, tensile test and flexural test properties of the pistachio shell powder strengthened epoxy resin. Pistachio shell powder with different weight fraction (5%, 7%, and 9%) strengthened epoxy resin has been developed by hand lay-up method. The tensile test, flexural test and impact strength displays the sample (epoxy+7% wt. pistachio shells) has the highest comparison with other samples. The principal results extracted from this work that the Samples with (9%) weight fraction of the pistachio shell content in epoxy resin decreases the modulus of elasticity, flexural strength, tensile strength, impact strength and flexural modulus, while at (5% and 7%) weight fraction of the pistachio shell content in epoxy resin raise the modulus of elasticity, tensile strength, flexural modulus, flexural strength and impact strength increased.
