Tensile Properties of Epoxy Composites Reinforced with Continuous Sisal Fibers

Abstract:

The tensile properties of DGEBA/TETA epoxy matrix composites reinforced with different amounts of sisal fibers were evaluated. Composites reinforce with up to 30% in volume of long, continuous and aligned sisal fibers were room temperature tested in an Instron machine. The fracture was analyzed by SEM. The results showed significant changes in the mechanical properties with the amount of sisal fibers. These mechanical properties were compared with other bend-tested composites results. The fracture analysis revealed a weak fiber/matrix interface, which could be responsible for the performance of some properties.
