Fabrication and Characterization of Composite Material Connecting Rod

This paper mainly focuses on the fabrication and characterization of connecting rods made by composite material. This composite material is obtained by using E Glass fibre, Epoxy Resin, Fly Ash and MWCNT. There are three types of compositions observed for different testing. These compositions are C1 (Epoxy—70%, E-Glass—21%, Fly Ash—8%, MWCNT—1%), Composition C2 (Epoxy 52%, E-Glass—32%, Fly Ash—15%, MWCNT—1%), & Composition C3 (Epoxy—42%, E-Glass—42%, Fly Ash—15%, MWCNT—1%).
