Investigation of Mechanical Strength and Weight Fraction of Date Palm Fibre Hybrid Composites Reinforced with Polyethylene

Polyethylene, elastomer, and date palm fibre are all readily available, it have an positive impact on growth of new composite materials with desirable features and characteristics. There are many different types of composites, but they all have the same goal: to create a new material with greater qualities than the constituent materials. Date palm fibre was employed to reinforce a composite matrix made of polyethylene (PE) plastic and elastomer. To find out the tensile, impact, and bending strength values of composites by weight fractions of 25% (75:25), 35% (65:35), and 45% (55:45), this research set out to find (55:45). Composites with a weight percentage of 25% (75:25) had less Tensile strength (TS) 1.213 MPa, though mixtures with weightage proportion of 45% (55:45) had the maximum TS of 2.613 MPa. The minimum tensile strain value was discovered in composites with a weight fraction of 25% (75:25), while the maximum tensile strain value was identified in composites with weight fraction of 45 percent (0.0067). (55:45). 45 % (45-55) weight ratio mixture had the minimum impact strength of 45321 kJ/mm2, while the 25 percent (75-25) weight ratio mixture had the maximum impact strength of 17721.41 kJ/mm2. A 25 percent weight fraction (75:25) composite had the lowest bending strength measurement result (1.816 MPa), whereas a 35 percent weight fraction (65:35) composite had the highest measurement result (4.9 MPA) in this category. At 75:25 (75:25), the bending strain of the composite was at its highest, with a value of 0.0216
