Mechanical behavior of sisal and ramie fiber-reinforced composite

Today’s trend in fiber composite research is widely increasing and by which natural fiber is also an alternative way to overcome artificial fiber. When sisal and ramie fibers are combined with a matrix polyester material can be created that is more competitive with the glass fiber. A fiber composite is made up of two phases one is a matrix and another one is reinforcement. Epoxy hardener Hy 951+Epoxy resin Ly 556 is employed with matrix phases. Natural fibers have the following advantages: greater obtainable, long durability, and specific resistance. The major function of a fiber matrix is to prevent the fiber from physical damage or external damage and to transfer stress between the reinforcing matrix, whereas the presence of fibers in a composite improves mechanical properties such as stiffness, strength, and so on. Due to their environmentally favorable features, sisal and ramie fiber composites are gaining popularity these days. Artificial fibers could be replaced with natural fibers. Natural fibers are alternatives to glass fiber and polymers. The sisal and ramie fiber reinforcement phase has not continuously been in shape. When differentiate to the phase of the matrix, it usually has high strength. The features of composites are determined by factors such as fiber extraction, surface modification, and composite synthesis. To attain the needed strength, fiber length, orientation, concentration, dispersion, aspect ratios, matrix selection, and matrix chemistry must all be considered during synthesis.
