In this research, the hybrid composite of glass fibers and empty fruit bunch fibers is prepared by using Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) instrument. RTM is widely used in industry because it is relatively low cost process. The hybrid composite will be tested on the physical and mechanical properties such as water absorption test, tensile test and impact test. For characterisation, the samples will be characterised using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA).

Therefore, the hybrid composite formed have good physical and mechanical properties. From the SEM images, the relations between the glass fibers and empty fruit bunch fibers can be seen clearly.

The combination of the glass fibers and empty fruit bunch fibers produced the hybrid composite with balanced cost and performance. 2016-12 Undergraduates Project Papers NonPeerReviewed application/pdf en http://umpir.ump.edu.my/id/eprint/19927/1/Study%20on%20properties%20of%20hybrid%20reinforced%20composite%20using%20glass%20fibers%20and%20empty%20fruit%20bunch%20%28EFB%29%20fibers-Table%20of%20contents.pdf application/pdf en http://umpir.ump.edu.my/id/eprint/19927/7/Study%20on%20properties%20of%20hybrid%20reinforced%20composite%20using%20glass%20fibers%20and%20empty%20fruit%20bunch%20%28EFB%29%20fibers-Abstract.pdf application/pdf en http://umpir.ump.edu.my/id/eprint/19927/13/Study%20on%20properties%20of%20hybrid%20reinforced%20composite%20using%20glass%20fibers%20and%20empty%20fruit%20bunch%20%28EFB%29%20fibers-Chapter%201.pdf application/pdf en http://umpir.ump.edu.my/id/eprint/19927/14/Study%20on%20properties%20of%20hybrid%20reinforced%20composite%20using%20glass%20fibers%20and%20empty%20fruit%20bunch%20%28EFB%29%20fibers-Reference.pdf Raodah, Hussin (2016) Study on properties of hybrid reinforced composite using glass fibers and empty fruit bunch (EFB) fibers.
