Abstract

Polymer composite has been used in a variety of application because of their many advantages such as relatively low cost of production, easy to fabricate and superior strength compared to neat polymer resin. Reinforcement in polymer is either syntenic or natural. The objective of the project work is to steady the physical and mechanical behaviour of biochar nano material based on epoxy matrix composite. The project focuses on the effect of differences in weight percentage of the nano material on the mechanical properties of the fabricated composites. The specimen is prepared with biochar obtained from rice husk and epoxy resin as a matrix in the polymer composite. The weight percentages were change and the moulding is done in a closed mould. The specimens were subjected to tensile strength, flexural strength and impact strength test and the failure of the composite was examined.
