Abstract

This work presents the extraction of fibers from various parts of the palm tree, its chemical and physical property characterization through standard tests and also development of composite samples with these fibers for testing tensile strength on a computerized universal testing machine. The results obtained through experimentation were compared with few other natural fiber based composites and the values were presented. The composite developed possess appreciable tensile strength and shall be used in automotive industry, aerospace applications, etc.
