Abstract:
In accordance to the present situation of environmental condition, the natural fibers offer the potential to act as a reinforcing material for polymer composites alternative to the use of glass, carbon and other man-made fibers due to its attracting properties. The natural fiber reinforced polymer composites are increasingly being used for varieties of engineering applications due to many of their advantages. Among various fibers, date palm is most widely used natural fiber due to its advantages like easy availability, low density, low production cost and satisfactory mechanical properties. For a composite material, its mechanical behaviour depends on many factors such as fiber content, orientation, types, length etc.In this connection an investigation has been carried out to make better utilization of date palm stem fiber for making value added products. Attempts have been made in this research work to study the effect of fiber loading of NaOH treated short date palm fiber ,untreated ,treated glass hybrid fiber on the physical, mechanical and water absorption behaviour of NaOH treated date palm fiber and treated and untreated date palm/glass fiber reinforced epoxy based hybrid composites.
