Abstract
Composites based on natural fibre reinforcement have generated wide research and engineering interest in the last few decades due to their small density, high specific strength, low cost, light weight, recyclability and biodegradability and has earned a special category of green composite. In this paper, sundi wood dust reinforced epoxy composite were processed with seven different % filler wt. The tensile and flexural tests were performed at three different speeds to study the mechanical behaviour of the composites. From the observation it was found that the mechanical property increases up to certain filler % age and then properties gradually decrease. The microstructure of the composites is also studied to analyze the change using scanning electron microscopy.
