【 摘 要 】

Researches attracting to develop natural fibre reinforced composites in world wide due to their low cost, mechanical properties, bio degradability and environmental friendly. Among various natural fabrics, flax fabric from plant protein and silk fabric from animal protein are chosen in this study and developed natural fabric reinforced polymer composites with hand lay-up method upon next load carrying tests such as tensile and compressive were examined as per ASTM standards and average compressive strength in silk and flax fabric reinforcement found to be 101.26 Mpa and 67.16Mpa.Density was found to be 1.20g/cc on both.
