【 摘 要 】

Natural fiber reinforced composites is an emerging area in polymer science. These natural fibers are low cost fibers with low density and high specific properties. In this paper, hybrid composite is fabricated with basalt fibre as a major constituents and glass fibre reinforced polymer as are in forcing agent. The method used for manufacturing the composite is handlay method in which all the operations are done manually at room temperature. The objective of this investigation was to study the effect of surface modifications and also the mechanical properties, including shear and impact strengths of composite fibre. Variations in mechanical properties such as the impact strength of various specimens were calculated using a computer-assisted universal testing machine and an Izod Impact testing machine.
