Abstract:The purpose of this study is to determine the tensile and flexural strength of Arenga pinnata fibres-epoxy as composite material. The Arenga pinnata fibres were soaked in 5 % NaOH solution for 2 hours. The specimens of the composite were prepared with different orientations Arenga pinnata fibres (i.e. 0° + 0°, 0° + 45°, 0° + 90°, and 45° + 90°). The Arenga pinnata fibres were mixed with epoxy and hardener also at the fibres volume percentage of 40%. The hand lay-up (HLU) process in this experiment was to produ… Show more
