This research focused on utilizing the natural fibres extracted from chrysanthemum waste in producing composite material using resin infusion processing method. The chrysanthemum waste fibres were extracted using water retting method then the fibres were further treated with Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) and Acrodur binder. This research investigated the effects of these treatment methods on the tensile and morphological properties of the composite. Prior to the infusion process, the CW fibres were made into fibre mat using water laid method. Then, these fibre mats were infused with epoxy resin and made into composite. This research found the CW fibre mat with NaOH and Acrudor binder treatments were able to produce a composite with tensile strength and modulus of 23.6 MPa and 4612.8 MPa, respectively. In short, the CW fibre have potential in being used to produce composite material that can be used for nonload bearing application. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
