The need for environmental friendly materials have stimulated researchers to carry out works in natural fibers, which are substitute human-made synthetic fibers many lightweight medium load applications. In the present work, Vachellia farnesiana fiber was selected as a fiber. obtained were characterized physical and chemical properties, Thermo Gravimetric Analysis (TGA), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and, tensile strength. Scanning Electron...
Natural fibre reinforced composites are being used in a variety of industries. Epoxy matrix with woven bamboo-cotton has been fabricated via., hand lay-up technique and compression moulding technique. In the fabrication composite panels, number layers varied from 8 to 14 according weight fabric. The tensile, bending, impact, compression, water-absorption, ILS properties for developed have tested or examined. SEM characterization was examine fractured morphology assess interface-strength...
The current study deals with the mechanical and morphological properties of sisal/bagasse fibers reinforced epoxy composites. composites were developed by hand layup process in four different proportions fibers. produced characterized for its characteristics, namely, tensile, flexural, impact, Shore D hardness compression tests, water absorption biodegradation tests as per ASTM. Morphologies studied using Scanning Electron Microscopy. It was inferred that three layers sisal a core layer good...

In recent decades, the production of natural fiber composites has increased due to their biodegradability and lower costs. current work, Vachellia farnesiana fibers were selected extracted by manual retting process. The obtained chemically treated with hydrochloric acid (HCl) sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solutions. untreated characterized for physical, chemical, tensile, morphological, thermal properties. Test results showed that cellulose content was 47.8 ± 0.697 weight % NaOH reduced moisture...
Abstract Use of machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze the complex interdependencies production dataset has gained momentum in recent years. Machine predictive algorithms are now used by manufacturers fine-tune quality their products. WEDM SS304 with process parameters such as pulse-on-time (Ton), pulse-off-time (T off), current (I), voltage (V) was varied study effect machining Material Removal Rate (MRR) surface roughness. Experiments were planned executed according...
Aluminium Metal Matrix Composites (AMMCs) are popular materials for aviation and automotive sectors due to their enhanced strength weight ratio, increased resistance corrosion better tribological properties. In this work, the AA7075 alloy was reinforced with Titanium Boride (TiB2) particles (0, 4, 8, 12 wt. %) via stir casting process. process, preheated TiB2 powder is dispersed into molten at 850 improve wettability distribution. The tensile strength, hardness, wear resistance,...
By hybridizing fibers, natural fibers are widely employed to substitute synthetic in all feasible applications. The present study focuses on the development and characterization of hybrid Areca-Pineapple fiber epoxy composites with varied stacking sequences. Using hand lay-up method, four types sequence-based were developed. ASTM standards used evaluate mechanical water absorption characteristics developed composites. Test results revealed that ultimate tensile (53.433 MPa), flexural (60...
The need for eco-friendly materials has risen globally due to environmental consciousness. This work involved the extraction and utilization of silane treated untreated Citrullus lanatus stem fiber brake friction composites. fibers were extracted from plant stems using a conventional manual retting process followed by treatment. silane-treated analyzed physical, chemical, thermal characteristics. application suitability was explored developing composites in form pads addition parental...
