| Abstract | ||
| This research was carried out to study the effect of weight fraction of coconut coir fiber treated withNaOH (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20%) and fiber length (1, 3 and 5 cm) on the mechanical properties of the unsaturated polyester composites. Some mechanical tests were carried out like: tensile strength, impact strength and flexural strength. The results show that all values of these properties were found to increase with the increasing fiber loading and fiber length. | ||
