Abstract

In modern technology, the composites materials play a major role to meet various requirements in all the industrial manufacturing needs. Such as, it increases physical properties, chemical, and structural properties. In this study, Human Hair fibers to make composites using epoxy resin.The tensile, flexural and impact tests of this composite were carried out experimentally according to ASTM standards. The human hair fiber is treated with NaOH (5%,7.5%&10%). To evaluate the mechanical properties of fiber such that tensile, impact test, flexural test among these treated 5 % gives more strength.
