The behaviour of sodium hydroxide treated sisal fibre-reinforced polyester composite subjected to environmental ageing conditions has been studied with the aim of modelling its effect on the composite fracture damage for the purpose of long-term performance prediction. The composite was...

Currently Fibre-Glass (FG) is the most widely used reinforcement in polymer composites. However, GF or fibre (|rassijs very expensive and non-biodegradable hence the need for alternative reinforcement materials that are less expensive like natural fibres. Natural fibre reinforced polymers (NFRPs)...
