Abstract

The target of the researcher and the work was to examine the tensile, flexural, and compressive properties of biofiber strengthened composites. The legitimacy and advantage of utilizing regular filaments was their effective accessibility, simple and safe dealing with, and biodegradable nature. While biofibers reveal commendable physical and mechanical properties, it shifts with the plant source, species, and geography. In the present work, bagasse–henequen filaments were utilized at the following fixations: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 wt%. Untreated and soluble base-treated bagasse–henequen filaments were fortified in the epoxy/vinyl ester mix and composites have been created by hand lay-up strategy. The bagasse–henequen strands were salt-treated for 12 and 24 h in 10% NaOH. Composites were assessed as far as their microstructure and mechanical properties. 25% wt. filaments 24 h NaOH (soluble base)-treated composites have demonstrated prevalent and optimum values than untreated and 12-h-treated composites.
