A STUDY ON CHARACTERISTICS OF NATURAL FIBRE

Abstract: Natural fibres are getting attention from researchers to utilize in polymer composites due to their ecofriendly nature and sustainability. Natural fibres due to its renewable, ecofriendly and biodegradable properties find its application in wide array of fields. The natural fibres can be reinforced with matrix components like epoxy resin and Polylactic acid to improve their productivity and performance. To understand the characteristics of the natural fibres the various test has to be conducted.

Keywords: Natural fibres, Reinforcement and epoxy resin.
