Abstract:
Fibre from paddy straw is one of the waste products in agriculture. The way to lessen the negative consequences of burning paddy straw, such as air pollution and environmental problems. In an attempt to lessen the environmental effect of paddy straw, efforts are being undertaken to identify good and sustainable uses for it. Investigating the technology for turning agricultural waste into creative items is the research gap. In this work, ortho laminated polyester composites reinforced with paddy straw fibre are used to form the composites. An alkali handling is applied to the paddy straw fibre to boost its strength. The raw and treated fibre were characterised by X-ray diffraction, Fourier Transform Infrared Radiation, Thermogravimetric Analysis, and surface images. The 300x300x3 mm randomly oriented composite laminate was created using semi-automatic compression moulding with weight ratios of 70:30, 60:40, and 50:50 (untreated and treated). After the laminate was prepared and cut according to the ASTM standard, the specimens were broken to employing a scanning electron microscope to determine the shape and structure, as well as the mechanical behaviours (tensile, flexural, impact, hardness, and shear). Ultimately, the results demonstrate that the fibre from paddy straw is an excellent material for non-structural uses.
