Abstract

Glass fibers /Drumstick fibers/banana fibers reinforced with epoxy sandwich composites were fabricated.
Impact strength, frictional co – efficient and dielectric strength were studied and analyzed. It is analyzed that the
impact strength and frictional co-efficient properties were improved with simultaneously improving Glass fiber
content. The samples were treated with NAOH solution and non-treated samples are also collected. The variation
between the treated samples and non-treated samples were studied. The fabricated composite possess good insulation
property.
