Abstract

RODRIGUEZ-SOTO, Angel-A. et al. Development of Composite with Henequen´s fibres and termofix matrix. Ingeniería Mecánica [online]. 2014, vol.17, n.3, pp.264-272. ISSN 1815-5944.

In this work was obtained the influence of the mass ratio of the henequen's fibers as reinforcing over the mechanical properties in traction an impact resistance of the composite with polymeric thermosetting matrix. Was found very similar physics and chemically, fibers from two regions of the country. Was analyzed the samples using digital interferometry searching for defects and was observed the region of rupture using electronic microscopy of sweeping. Was determined that the increase of the inclusion of the fiber as reinforcement in this material cause the increase of the study properties, raising a maximum over the 20 % of the mass ratio in the relation fiber-matrix. Was observed an increasing over the 53 % in the resistance to traction and over 88 % in the impact resistance compare to the matrix alone.

Keywords : FRP: fiber reinforced plastics; natural fibers; digital interferometry.
