Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Terminalia Chebula and Teak Wood Sawdust Reinforced Polymer Hybrid Composites
Abstract: This study examines the mechanical characteristics of polymer hybrid composites augmented with sawdust from teak wood and Terminalia chebula (Kadukkai). To examine their effects on mechanical performance, the composites were made with different percentages of biofiller (10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50%) while keeping the proportions of the two reinforcements same. Tensile, flexural, and impact tests were performed to assess their strength properties. The findings showed that flexural strength varied …

An Approach on Optimization of Thermo Physical Properties of Teak Wood Dust Filled Polymeric Composites
Abstract: The aim of the present work was to prepare the specimens with the help of hand-lay-up technique to measure the thermal properties of TWDPC. The density & voids of TWDPC were measured to determine its physical property & significantly affected some of its mechanical properties. Taguchi experimental method was applied to optimize its thermal properties. The optimal factor combinations were determined with the help of ANOM & the analysis of …

Evaluation of Tectona Grandis Leaf Extract As A Green Corrosion Inhibitor for Aluminium in 1M NaOH
Abstract: A kind of tropical hardwood tree called the Tectona grandis tree that is indigenous to India. The name "teak tree" is another common name for this kind of tree. It is a member of the plant family that is referred to as Lamiaceae. The primary purpose of this research is to investigate whether or not the plant extract has a corrosion-inhibiting quality. In this study, an aqueous extract of Tectona …

Design and Development of Fiber Sandwiched Composite Materials for the Improvement of Mechanical Properties
Abstract: This research paper presents the development and mechanical characterization of fiber sandwiched composite materials (FSCM) to address the increasing demand for high-strength, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant materials in advanced engineering sectors such as automotive, aerospace, and transportation industries. Traditional homogeneous materials such as metals, ceramics, and polymers often fail to provide a balanced combination of properties like high tensile strength, low density, toughness, abrasion resistance, and impact resistance needed for modern …
