  By D. Mohana Krishnudu, P. Venkateshwar Reddy, R. V. Saikumar Reddy, A. C. Umamaheshwer Rao

  Abstract: Natural fibre reinforced composites are more commonly used in various applications due to their biodegradability, low cost, available in nature and less harmful to the environment than synthetic fibres. In the present study, NaCl alkali treated MuntingiaCalaburafibres(MCF) reinforced composites are developed using hand layup technique and evaluated the mechanical properties of the composites. The increase of the NaCl content (up to 20 percent) and the fibre weight is maintained constant …
