Synthesis and Characterisation of Sugarcane Bagasse and P?neapple Leaf Particulate Re?nforced Polyester Res?n Matr?x Compos?tes

In this study, an experimental research was conducted in developing and characterising sugarcane bagasse pineapple leaf particulate re?nforced polyester res?n compos?tes. Unsaturated resin (UPR) reinforced with particulates varied proportions (0 – 25 wt. %) by mould casting. Morphology mechanical properties of the composites were examined. There a good dispersion resin. The composite demonstrated highest tensile strength, flexural impact energy 84.94 MPa, 121.16 7.37 J respectively at 20 % reinforcement. improved increasing concentration This is indication suitability reinforcing materials as fillers for unsaturated potential polymer matrix has low strength applications.
