Abstract

The polymer based natural fiber composites are mostly used in automotive and aviation application because of their specific characteristics including light weight, low density, easy availability and reduced cost. Hence the present work is concentrated on bio-materials like jute fiber, chicken feather reinforced with egg shell as a filler material in composites. The composites samples were fabricated with various weight percentages of (Eggshell 10%,Eggshell 15%) combined with epoxy resin using hand lay-up method and various test were carried out like tensile, impact strength, hardness with the fabricated composite samples as per the ASTM standards.
