fiber
reinforced
polyester composites.

Mechanical performance of coir S.N. Monteiro, L.A.H. This paper focused on the Composites
fiber/polyester composites
Terrones,
J.R.M. prepared with two molding pressures and
DAlmeida
with amounts of coir fiber up to
80 wt% were fabricated. The results obtained
for flexural strength allowed comparison of
the technical performance of the composites
with other conventional materials.

Experimental investigation of Madhusudhana Reddy This paper investigated on the Test

mechanical properties of sisal H, Bharath S Kodli, specimens which are prepared with different
fiber and rice husk reinforced Ravi B Chikmeti
% weight of sisal fiber and a small
polymer composite
percentage of rice husks are added and tests
were conducted. Thus, improvement in
mechanical properties of the hybrid
composite material is observed
