Research Abstract |
Natural fiber reinforced biomass plastics are carbon neutral materials and anticipated for alternative materials of GFRP. In this study, the fatigue property and mechanism of unidirectional jute spun yarn reinforced biomass plastics were investigated. PLA and PBS were used as matrix. As a result, it is shown that the fatigue strengths at 106cycles were about 50% of the tensile strength for both matrix resins and the fatigue mechanisms was dependent of the ductility of matrix resin.
