  Thermal Stability and Sound Absorption Behaviour of Sisal–Luffa Hybrid Epoxy Composites for Automotive Interior Applications

  By Sarita Choudhary, Umesh Gurnani, Manoj Kumar Sain

  Abstract: Natural fiber–reinforced composites are gaining popularity as substitutes for synthetic fiber composites because of their environmental and sustainability advantages. Their adoption is steadily increasing across various industries. In automotive interior applications, these materials must exhibit strong thermal stability and efficient sound absorption to meet performance requirements. In this experiment, composites were made by mixing sisal and luffa fibers with epoxy resin. The hand lay-up method was used for fabrication. Two …
