This article presents the storage modulus analysis of kenaf fibre composites that reinforced by two different epoxy matrix systems, named epoxy A and epoxy B. These epoxies are commercially available in Malaysia and been used as a polymer matrix in composite research. Composites were made from hand lay out technique and undergo storage modulus evaluation by using dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). Fibre content ratios were found to affect the storage capacity in both reinforced epoxy system. However, the addition of 45% kenaf fibre volume ratios reinforced into Epoxy A composites exhibits only week improvement as compared to its rival. The possibility of causes might be attributed to the week interfacial between fibre and matrix.
