Abstract

Curaua fiber is one of the strongest natural fibers rich in cellulosic content and is being currently considered as reinforcement for any polymer based matrix composites. The current work investigates the dynamic and mechanical properties of polymer matrix composites reinforced with continuous curaua fiber and E glass fiber. The fabricated polymer matrix composites by hand layup technique will be tested for water absorption, Izod, Charpy, damping test and SEM analysis.
