ANALISIS VARIASI PANJANG SERAT TERHADAP KUAT TARIK DAN LENTUR PADA KOMPOSIT YANG DIPERKUAT SERAT
Abstract: Natural fibre
composites have been developed for some applications. One of potential natural
fibre for composite is angustifolia Haw Agave fibre. In this research, the tensile strength and
flexural strength of agave fibre
composite with variations of
fibre length were
determined. Fibre agave
(treated and untreated) with 1
cm, 3 cm and 5 cm length was used as reinforced composite. The results showed that the
maximum tensile strength
of agave fibre
composite with untreated
fibre occurs in
5 cm length, meanwhile with
treated fibres the tensile strength tends to similar for each fibre length; and
agave fibre with
5 cm length
as reinforced composite
has higher flexural
strength than other
fibre lengths for treated and untreated fibres.
