  • Abstract:
  • Various samples have been fabricated by varying volume fraction of fibre (25%,50%,75%) using hand layup technique of thickness 6mm and 8mm correspondingly tests such as Rockwell hardness and Charpy impact are conducted and it has been found that high hardness number of 144.3 is obtained for 75% volume of fibre compared to that of 25% and 50% for 8 mm thick specimen, and high hardness number of 121.66 is obtained for 75% volume of fibre of 10mm thick specimen when compared to 25%and 50% and high impact strength of 140j is obtained for 25% volume fiber compared to 50%and 75% for 8mm thick specimen and 80j is obtained for 25% volume fibre compared to 50% and 75% for 10 mm thick specimen.
