Fabrication and Study of Mechanical Properties of Composite Panel Using Sisal/Glass/Basalt Fibres

Abstract

Environmental awareness, increasing concern with the greenhouse effect and bio-degradation has hastened the construction industry to look forward for sustainable materials with least impact on the existing surroundings. Natural fibre reinforced composites seems to be a good alternative because of their eco-friendly nature. Natural fibre reinforced composites are widely used for different application such as building industry, automotive industry, aerospace industry, furniture industry, bio-medical industry. In this present investigation a natural and synthetic fibre composite with vinyl ester as resin is made by using glass fibre, sisal fibre, basalt fibre and prosopis juliflora fibre. The weight percentage of the fibre reinforcement varied as 50%, 25% ,25%. 6 numbers of different composite specimens are prepared. The samples are analyzed for their tensile, flexural and impact strength.
