Abstract:
Natural fibers have been used to reinforcing materials for over 2,000 years. It have recently become attractive to researchers, engineers and scientists as an alternative reinforcement for fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. Natural fibers are emerging as cost effective and apparently ecologically superior substitutes to glass fibers in composites. In this paper, the investigation of mechanical properties of hybrid kapok reinforced plastic will be observe. Samples of hybrid kapok reinforced plastic will manufacture using hand layup method and specimens will cut from the fabricate laminate according to the ASTM standards for different experiments. For Tensile test & Impact test samples will cut in Dog-bone shape and flat bar shape respectively.
