Abstract :
During the last few years, utilization of natural bio-fruit waste have received much more attention than ever before from the research community all over the world. Utilization of natural fruit waste reduces the environmental problems and more effectively some of the fibers giving almost equal strengths and resistance as given by traditional synthetic fibres. Several research efforts have been put to study the mechanical properties of the epoxy composites, focusing mainly on fibers and their weight percent’s within the composites. In this work a set of new composite were prepared with varying the weight fraction of particles (orange peel) and a set of Experiments were carried out to study the tensile, flexural and hardness of the composites. The experimental samples were studied by Scanning Electron microscope.
