Abstract:Recently, the demand for natural fiber based composite products as compared to synthetic fiber based products has increased manifold due to their salient characteristics, such as biodegradability, non-toxicity, and sustainability. Hole-making is an inevitable operation to ascertain the structural integrity of complex composite products. Thus, a comparative assessment has been reported between the molded and drilled holes in two types of composites, that is, aloe vera fiber and banana fiber based epoxy composit… Show more
