摘要
The aim of this study is to analyze the effect of the coconut fibre composition upon the energy and resilience characteristic. A series of four samples with composition of 15, 30, 45 and 60 vol.% of coconut fiber was prepared by mixing together with polyester resin and were tested using pendulum impact test machine. The energy and resilience were measured according to ASTM D-6110. The sample with 60 vol.% coconut fibre displayed the highest value of energy and resilience. This is due to the proper strength distribution by the fibre matrix. On top of that the coconut fibre itself behaved as a significant adhesion between the matrix and composite. As a conclusion, the higher composition of coconut fibre added to the composite resulted in better impact characteristic.
