description | In recent years, man-made fibers have been largely replaced by natural fibers as a reinforcement in polymer composites. Hemp fiber has the ability to be used as reinforcement in polymer composites due to its biodegradability, abundance, higher fiber production per acre, rapid growth rate, and high strength-to-weight ratio. Before reinforcing any fiber/fabric into the matrix to form composites, its characteristics should be investigated. The quality of the fiber has a significant impact on the properties of fiber reinforced composites. The fabric’s strength has a significant effect on the performance of a composite because it bears majority of the load. This paper describes modern and systematic methods for examining the physical and mechanical properties of industrial hemp fiber and its fabric. The hemp fiber is characterized in this study based on its constituents. Additionally, thermal stability, crystallinity, elemental analysis, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy are determined. The study discovered that the fiber had a high crystallinity value, a higher tensile modulus, and a breaking force comparable to some synthetic fibers. Because of the properties obtained, hemp fiber and fabric are suitable alternatives for use as reinforcing materials in polymer composites. |
