Hybrid composites possess unique features that can be used to meet different design requirements with respect to strength, stiffness and flexural behaviour. A key parameter in hybrid composite structures arrangement design strongly affects the variety of properties such as tensile and compressive strength based on high performance resin. In this study Natural and synthetic fibres are combined in the same matrix (unsaturated polyester) to make Banana/Bamboo fibre hybrid composites using poly urethane resin.

Abstract
Hybrid composites possess unique features that can be used to meet different design requirements with respect to strength, stiffness and flexural behaviour. A key parameter in hybrid composite structures arrangement design strongly affects the variety of properties such as tensile and compressive strength based on high performance resin. In this study Natural and synthetic fibres are combined in the same matrix (unsaturated polyester) to make Banana/Bamboo fibre hybrid composites using poly urethane resin. The banana natural fibre is treated with NaOH. The fabrication of hybrid composite is to be done using Hand lay-up method. The fabricated hybrid composite is to be tested and their properties are to be studied. Additionally making banana nano fibre are using chemical treatment like pre-treatment (17.5% NaOH), acid hydrolysis (1M Hcl) and alkali treatment (2% NaOH) followed by hybrid composite was fabricated. The fabricated hybrid composite is to be tested and their properties are to be studied.
