Abstract

The coconut shell particle reinforced polyester composite was produced using a simple technique called hand lay-up. Tensile and flexural testswere carried out to investigate the mechanical properties of the composite. To maintain a low cost, the composite was produced without compatibilizer. The result shows that the tensile and flexural strength increases with the particleloading. The elastic modulus and the strain at failure are high at a certain particle loading. The scanning electron micrograph shows adequate compatibility between particle and polyester matrix. This compatibility is attributed to the strength of the polyester/CS composite.
