Analysis of mechanical behavior and free vibration characteristics of treated Saccharum munja fiber polymer composite

Introduction. With increasing environmental concern nowadays, researchers are studying new alternating materials that can meet the society needs and extracted from renewable biodegradable resources. The various natural fibers have been investigated by to replace synthetic ones. purpose of work. In present study, treated saccharum munja considered as reinforcement material in Particulate (PC), Short Random (SRC) Unidirectional (UDC) form along with AW106 Resin HV953. paper assesses mechanical properties Munya (Saccharum munja). Initial six frequencies corresponding damping factors measured analyze possibility using a composite material. Research methods. A compression molding machine was used laminated materials. Surface treatment removes dust, lignin hemicellulose, which improves free vibration properties. Results Discussion. Tensile flexural test shows highest value strength 170 MPa 143 case UDC composite, lowest PC. Addition fiber epoxy matrix enhances adhesion bonding. PC better than SRC composite. frequency 43, 233, 298, 849, 918 1,440 Hz obtained irrespective all modes. results analysis show Saccharum Munja may be structural Analysis variance (ANOVA) experimental output tensile teste significant.
