Mechanical Behavior and Model Fitness of the Natural Fiber Composite: A Study on Orange Peel and Charcoal Composite

Abstract

In this paper, orange peel with charcoal in addition with epoxy resin composite is tested for the behavior of mechanical properties. The results depicted that the best hardness, thickness, tractable flexural are getting for the material organized with the 20 % of weight sustained orange strip epoxy composite. The obtained results were also tested for regression analysis for validate the experimental data for assessment of model fitness.
Keywords: natural composite fiber, orange peel, charcoal, epoxy resin, regression analysis.
