Thermal Conductivity and Flammability Analysis on Coconut Sheath Reinforced Polyester Composites

Abstract

Thermal conductivity is very important study done for the polymer composites towards characterizing the application field in recent days. Present work, thermal conductivity along the thickness is experimented. Flammability for the fabricated composites through accelerated and natural burning is studied and reported. Composites are prepared under compression for varying reinforcement type. Hybrid composite are also produced and compared with the properties of the virgin composites.
