Some Features of Doping of Nano–Graphite in Natural Coir Fibre Epoxy Composites

An attempt has been made to find some direct/indirect uses of nonocomposite polymers in varios sectors such as; biomedical engineering, electronics, structural engineering and many more due new advancement of science and technology. In the present research work, we used the doping of nano-graphite in the natural coir fibre reinforced polymer composites. The used samples of composites were 45 % of natural coir fibre and 3.2 % of nano-graphite (N-G) in an epoxy resin matrix by weigth fraction. We find that on doping the above % weight of nano-graphite in the natural coir fibre, the tensile strength roughly increased by 45-50 % and the rest of the mechanical properties by 2-3 times on the average. And finally, the SEM analysis revealed a good dispersion of nanographite in the present samples of composite of coir fibre
