Mechanical Behaviour of Chicken Feather Reinforced Polymer Composites
Keywords:
Chicken Feather, Composites, Mechanical Properties, PolyesterAbstract
The goal of this proect is to use and assess the mechanical properties of the chicken quill strengthened polyester composites. Preceding creation of the composites, the chicken plume strands (CFF) were cleaned, tried and dissected as far as physical properties; straight thickness and elastic conduct. The unidirectional CFF fortified composites were created with polyester resins with various extents. Trials were led to decide physical properties of the control (0%) and CFF fortified composites; tensile,flexural and Charpy impact testing. It was discovered that the impact properties of the CFF strengthened composites are altogether superior to the control composites. Anyway both the malleable and the flexural properties of the CFF fortified composites have less fortunate qualities contrasted with the control composites. The CFF fortified composite have potential applications because of its improved impact conduct. Therefore the poultry waste can be used for any designing application and they will be favored because of minimal effort and prevalent attributes and the above all they won't cause biological and medical issues
