Abstract

The curaua fiber is one of the strongest ligno cellulosic and is being currently considered as reinforcement of polymer composite for industrial application. The present work investigates the properties of polyester matrix composites reinforced with continuous curaua fiber and E glass fiber. The developed composites will be tested for tensile, bending, Brinell hardness test and fracture surface will be observed by Scanning Electron Microscope. Polymer matrix composites were developed by hand lay-up technique and specimens were prepared as per ASTM standards.
