Abstract:

World is now trying to use alternate material sources that are environment friendly and biodegradable in nature. Green composite produced using regular fiber and polymeric resin can help us to reduce our dependence on those materials which harm our environment. The composite materials have wide range of application in engineering. The composite consists of mainly two phases i.e. matrix and fiber. [1], [6], Fiber reinforced polymer composites has numerous preferences, for example, generally minimal effort of creation. This work describes the Delamination factor, water absorption capacity and strength of hemp fiber reinforced polymer composite with and without use of fly ash as filler material. Various tests are conducted to observe the impact of use of fly ash in hemp fiber reinforced polymer composite.
