Mechanical Characterisation of the Kenaf Fiber Reinforced Epoxy Composite for Ankle Foot Orthosis

  • Unique Paper ID: 170546
  • PageNo: 1203-1211
  • Abstract:
  • Kenaf fiber epoxy composites were fabricated for ankle foot orthosis, testing five volume fractions (0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%). Results showed increasing voids with fiber content. 40% kenaf had highest tensile strength (89 MPa). Flexural strength peaked at 30% (148 MPa). MOORA optimization ranked 40% best for physical and mechanical properties
