Kenaf is one of the most promising fibers for composite conversion. In this work, kenaf is being combined with combing waste and polyester resin as matrix. The comparison of properties are based on tensile strength and flexural strength of 100% resin, 100% kenaf and 50/50 kenaf/cotton combing waste...
