Abstract: | Hy-KeFREC is a novel hybrid kenaf/glass fiber rainforced pultruded composite which could be used as a alternative material to conventional glass fiber composites, aluminium and steel in various light weight structural applications. Hy-KeFREC offers high specific mechanical properties, low cost, lightweight, and environmentally friendly. Typically, HY-KeFREC was produced by sophisticated fabrication technique namely pultrusion process. This envention was mainly made by combination of unsaturated Polyester Resin reinforced with hybridization of continuous kenaf and glass fiber with addition of filler: Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3), surface additive (KOTE) AND Catalyst: Benzoyl Peroxide (BPO), respectively. |
