This paper reports the characterization of tensile and impact properities of polymer based composites filled with polyester fabrics. Polymers are well suited as matrix materials due to their low density and their low processing temperatures. The polymer matrix composites are light weight, high strength to weight ratio and stiffness properties have come a long way in replacing the conventional materials such as metals and wood.The hybridization of specimens is done by maintaining the volume fractions for the different tests as per the ASTM. The composite material is made with glass fabrics, polyester and epoxy resin.

The natural fibers are having enormous advantages and are of mainly renewable material. Natural fibers are getting boom because of the cost effective and easily available and now it is been proved that it can be used as alternate reinforcement material to synthetic fibers in composites. In this review journal a different types of natural fibers with their characterization, applications and properties of Natural fiber reinforced polymer matrix hybrid composite materials has been studied. The methodology and matrix material and also fillers added and for the improvement in mechanical characterization of various natural fiber composites have been summarized. This paper reviews the information on characterization of the natural fiber/fabric reinforced polymer matrix composites with filler materials. and the result shows that the natural fiber reinforced polymer matrix composites with particles having good strength with equivalent mechanical and chemical strength to synthetic polymer matrix hybrid composites. The results indicates that the fabrication of natural with filler materials enhance the properties and can be taken as good potential replacement for synthetic and glass, carbon, Kevlar fiber reinforced polymer composites in the overall Engineering and Automobile application.
