Abstract

As a reinforcing component for polymer composites, common threads generated from sustainable natural resources are now an option to glass, carbon, and other man-made filaments. Because to its benefits, including its ease of accessibility, low cost of manufacture, and attractive mechanical features, bamboo is the distinctive fiber that is used the most commonly among the many filaments. A composite material's mechanical behavior is influenced by a number of variables, including as the quantity, kind, introduction, length, and other properties of the fibers. In this work, attempts were made to consider how fiber stacking and introduction affected the physical, mechanical, and water retention behavior of bamboo/glass fiber reinforced epoxy-based cross breed composites. Composites made from glass fibers oriented differently, such as (0°, 3 0°,450 and 60°) are created utilizing basic hand lay-up system. This investigation deals with the Compressive, Impact and Hardness Properties of Fabricated Hybrid composite using Bamboo, Glass Fiber and Epoxy resin. To study influence of Glass fiber orientation of (0, 30, 45, 60) mechanical properties like Impact strength, Hardness, Compression strength of fabricated composites. During Comparison the Hardness, Compression strength shows Optimum Results in 45 degrees of Glass Fiber Orientation. Izod strength is maximum in 0 degrees of Glass Fiber Orientation.
