Abstract

Natural fiber-based composite materials have emerged applications in automotive, aerospace, and marine applications. For better mobility, light and strong material requirement led to the development new composites for automobiles and the aerospace industry. This study deals with different composite plates made of different layers of natural fiber (Jute) and resin (epoxy and hardener). The mechanical properties, such as the impact strength of the composites, were studied by introducing different fiber orientations. This chapter reported on gaining data from impact strength and wire mesh reinforcement. The impact strength variations for Charpy and Izod test methods were observed for 30, 40, 50, and 60% fiber volume fractions. The results show that the 60% addition of jute fiber loading improves impact strength by 175%. The impact strength of 45° oriented wire composite specimen depicts better interfacial bonding between the jute fiber and wire mesh than 90° oriented wire mesh composite.
