Design and fabrication of construction helmet by using hybrid composite material

Abstract: Composite materials with thermoplastic matrices and a reinforcement of natural fibers are increasingly regarded as an alternative to material replacement for various applications. The substitution of the traditionally used composite of natural fibers such as sisal, banana and jute can lead to a reduction of the component's weight and furthermore to a significant improvement of specific properties like impact strength, compression strength. One of the major fields of application for such materials can be found … Show more

“…Fabricate a military helmet using coir fiber-reinforced epoxy composite. The weight percentage of fiber for different composition is 20, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, and 85 taken [12]. Based on the description above, a study was conducted on the effect of variations in the volume fraction of coco fiber on polyester-reinforced composites as helmet material, using a variation of the fiber volume fraction of 20%, 40%, and 60% using the method compression molding.…”
