Abstract

Reinforced natural fibre materials    have    been used    in    several applications for the past few decades. The use of naturally available bio materials as a reinforcing fiber and filler in the polymer   materials   had   evoked   lot   of   interest   among researchers. It has been shown that natural fibers and bio fillers can be used as an appropriate replacement for synthetic fibers such as glass fibers, carbon fibers and Kevlar fibers.  Researchers  have  shown  interest  in  the manufacture  of  composites  from  various  agricultural  and natural  waste  materials  due  to  the  growing  demands  for environment -friendly and recycled materials. Natural fibers and fillers have several advantages such as less weight, lower price,  high  strength  to  weight  ratio, ease  of  availability and ecological  advantages  of  usingnatural  resources,  which  are renewable and degradable.Natural fibres and fillers are also safer to handle compared to processing glass fibres. This paper mainly concentrated on reinforcement of polymer plastics with different proportions of dry flower filler powder composites. These composites are subjected to the shear stress to find the fracture behaviour.
