Evaluating the Effect of Some Mechanical Properties for Chemically Treated Various Natural Fibers Reinforced Polyester Composite

摘要

This research were studied the effect of some mechanical properties for composite materials reinforced fiber and prepared from material (polyester with various natural fibers) then studied the effect of chemical treatment on the same fiber immerse in 10% NaOH solution for half an hour and then compared, the results of the same test of composite materials without and with chemical treatment and the results proved that there is a clear effect when treat the fiber compared to non-chemical treatment of the fibers also noted that hemp fibers loaded the stress higher than other fibers for both cases to distinguish them that the hemp fiber has continuous fibers either the other fibers are characterized by the type of cross linking or chopped types in tensile test, and the results of the same test of composite materials without and with chemical treatment and the results proved that the hardness of the fiber composite while the treated fiber composite samples better than the untreated fiber, and from the figures the palm leaf has the highest value than lufa fiber, hemp fiber and the smallest value is in sisal fiber because of the nature of formation fibers materials.
