Abstract:The developed novel Nanoclay (NC) filled bamboo fibre (BF) /glass fibre (GF) reinforced unsaturated polyester (USP) hybrid composites were subjected to static and dynamic mechanical studies. Effect of NC on mechanical properties of the neat and NC filled BF/GF hybrid composites were tested in accordance with the ASTM standards. Dynamic mechanical analysis was performed on the composites to evaluate their viscoelastic properties like, storage modulus (E'), loss modulus (E") and damping factor (Tanδ). Outcomes o… Show more
