Abstract:

this paper assesses the mechanical properties of horse hair/epoxy resin, glass fiber /epoxy resin and horse hair/glass fiber/epoxy resin hybrid composite. The weight percentage and staking sequence (orientation) of fiber has impact on mechanical properties like tensile strength, compressive strength and flexural strength. Afterward testing the composite; it is clear that there is a basic effect of weight percentage and orientation in mechanical property of composite. The test out comes are drawn and conclusion are made with comparing the result of horse hair/epoxy and glass fiber /epoxy with hybrid of glass fiber and horse hair fiber. The result also shows the hybrid one is preferred.

Keywords:

glass fibre, horse hair, hybrid, mechanical property.
