In the present work, the epoxy-based hybrid composites have developed by combining the Sansevieria cylindrica and Glass fibers into epoxy matrix. Tensile strength, compression strength, TGA and DSC properties of hybrid composites without alkali treatments have been studied. Variations of the mechanical and thermal properties have been studied with different combinations of Sansevieria cylindrica and glass fibers as reinforced into epoxy matrix. The aforementioned mechanical properties optimally improved by increasing the natural Sansevieria cylindrica fiber percentage. The observation established good miscibility of epoxy and homogenous dispersion of Sansevieria/Glass fibers in the epoxy matrix.

Abstract


In the present work, the epoxy-based hybrid composites have developed by combining the Sansevieria cylindrica and Glass fibers into epoxy matrix. Tensile strength, compression strength, TGA and DSC properties of hybrid composites without alkali treatments have been studied. Variations of the mechanical and thermal properties have been studied with different combinations of Sansevieria cylindrica and glass fibers as reinforced into epoxy matrix. The aforementioned mechanical properties optimally improved by increasing the natural Sansevieria cylindrica fiber percentage. The observation established good miscibility of epoxy and homogenous dispersion of Sansevieria/Glass fibers in the epoxy matrix.
