Flexural and Inter-laminar shear stress properties of glass fiber reinforced Iso-polyester, Epoxy & vinyl ester composites

Abstract In this study the glass fiber is reinforced in Iso-polyester, Epoxy & vinyl ester resin with different percent fiber and resin combination. The composites were prepared with the hand lay-up technique followed by compression. After preparing specimens as per ASTM standard these specimens are tested on the computerized universal testing machine for flexural strength and inter-laminar shear stress (ILSS). The experimental data is used to compare and find the best percentage combination of resin and fiber for different applications of composite.
