Inhaltsangabe

Natural fibers reinforced composites are applying themselves in almost every engineering field because of their cost effectiveness and biodegradable behaviour. One such god gifted natural fiber that is lacking the researchers consideration is the human hair. Human hair is categorised as a nano-composite natural fiber enclosing immaculate microstructures in it. An important aspect is that a single strand of human hair can withstand a load of 100 - 150 grams. Adding to this, human hair is elastic and it is capable of regaining its original position on removal of the deformation load. But three to four tons of human hair fibers are wasted in India annually; thus posing an environmental challenge. Therefore, we have tried to utilize this fiber in the field of material science. This work reveals the systematic methodology of fabrication and evaluation of diverse properties of the epoxy based human hair reinforced composites.
