Abstract:The manufacturing sector is presently in search of sustainable materials that are lighter in weight, readily available, biodegradable, and cost-friendly. Natural fibers are observed to bring unblemished advancement in composite materials. In this research, a novel hybrid composite material has been analyzed. The composite comprises two different natural fibers, kenaf and coir fiber, reinforced in epoxy matrix with nanofillers of calcium carbonate particles. The weight percent of kenaf and coir fibers is mainta… Show more
