Napier grass fibres were extracted trough conventional water retting process and used as reinforcing materials in the polyester composite laminates. Tensile tests were then conducted for the composite specimens from the laminates at 25% fibre loading using the electronic extensometer setup to obtain the tensile properties. The results show significant differences in tensile strength between random short fibres laminates and random long fibre laminates with the long fibres yield almost 45 % higher in the strength. The laminates also show higher maximum strength compared to other commonly available natural fibre composites with over 70 % increase in the maximum strength compared to the short kenaf fibre reinforced composites. 2014-06-04T09:12:16Z 2014-06-04T09:12:16Z 2014-06 Article Applied Mechanics and Materials, vol. 554, 2014, pages 189-193 1660-9336 http://www.scientific.net/AMM.554.189 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/35098 10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMM.554.189 en Trans Tech Publications |
