  Abstract

With the high usage of the synthetic fiber, the amount of the waste materials has increased as the degradation process is quite slow and with the burning of the synthetic fibers creates toxic gas and other environmental hazards.Presently natural fibershas many implications like low density, cheap, high specific properties, non-abrasive and less harmful during manufacturing and most importantly the abundance in nature and can be made by planting. Because of which it is giving a good run compare to conventional glass and carbon fibers composites. The glass fiber composite is replaced by natural fiber composites for environmental sustainability. Fiber extracted from plants is renewable and low levels of embodied energy compared to synthetic fibers. This paper deals with comparison of mechanical properties of a hybrid composite (abaca + sisal) and comparing the results with the ABAQUS simulation results. This hybrid composite consists of three layers with top and bottom layers of sisal fibers and the middle layer is made up of abaca fiber. These hybrid composites (sisal + abaca) were fabricated with different orientations (0
