Abstract: This work dealt with the fabrication of natural fibres reinforced polymer composites with the biochar as filler. Composites are prepared using compression moulding machine. Pineapple fibre was used as reinforcement and vinyl Ester resin was used as a matrix. Pineapple fibre of length 50 mm and weight as 50% were taken for the study. The prepared composites were subjected to erosion and mechanical performance studies and based on the results obtained, the prepared composites were suggested for suitable applications.
Keywords: Natural Fibre, Vinyl Ester Resin, Biochar.
Scope of the Article: Mechanical Maintenance
