FABRICATION AND TESTING OF COPPER BASED POLYMER WITH E-GLASS AND FLY ASH REINFORCED POLYMER COMPOSITES

  • Unique Paper ID: 177608
  • PageNo: 1032-1036
  • Abstract:
  • This study investigates the fabrication and mechanical characterization of copper-based polymer composites reinforced with E-glass fiber and fly ash. Using a hand layup technique, various compositions were prepared with copper, E-glass fiber, fly ash, and unsaturated polyester resin. Mechanical properties including tensile strength and impact resistance were evaluated. The results show that hybrid composites exhibit superior mechanical properties compared to single-fiber composites. The best performance was observed in composites with an equal distribution of all constituents, indicating a synergistic reinforcement effect.
