The effect of natural materials on mechanical properties of composite materials
This research studied the mechanical properties of orange and pomegranate shells powders reinforced unsaturated polyester with different weight fractions %Wf. The composite specimens were prepared by hand lay-up technique and sectioned according to (ASTM) for tensile, impact, bending and compression...

Summary: | This research studied the mechanical properties of orange and pomegranate shells powders
reinforced unsaturated polyester with different weight fractions %Wf. The composite
specimens were prepared by hand lay-up technique and sectioned according to (ASTM)
for tensile, impact, bending and compression tests to obtain modulus of elasticity, ultimate
tensile strength, elongation percentage, compression strength, impact energy and fracture
toughness of the composite specimens. The results showed that the composite specimens
reinforced with pomegranate shells powder give high mechanical properties compared with
composites specimens reinforced with orange shells powder |
