Synopsis

The world's attention is now focused on resources that are environmentally friendly and recyclable. Due to growing environmental concerns, a bio composite made of standard fiber and polymeric resin is one of the most recent breakthroughs in the industry and establishes the current scope of experimental activity. In the engineering application, the use of composite materials is gradually growing. The matrix and fiber are the two primary segments of the composite. The availability of high-quality fiber and ease of assembly has prompted inventors all over the world to test regionally accessible low-cost yarn and determine their ability to protect grit and how much they can perform the thankful facts of great reinforced polymer composites intended for structural use. Fiber reinforced polymer compounds have everyday preferences, such as requiring less effort to create, being easier to create, and having a higher quality disparity than perfect polymer. For this reason, fiber reinforced polymer composites are used in a variety of applications as a structural material. Composite materials are mostly developed in response to technological needs. Natural fibers have recently piqued the interest of scientists and technologists due to the advantages they offer over traditional reinforcement materials, and the creation of bio fiber composites has been a hot topic in recent years. The present work spotlight on study of mechanical properties of banana fiber/epoxy resin composite at 30%, 40% and 50% volume fractions of banana fiber and different fiber direction 00, 450 & 900.The mechanical property like tensile strength is experimentally evaluated.
