Abstract :
Composite is a material that is made by combining two types of materials
that have different properties. Composites material made of natural fiber continue
to be researched and developed to become an alternative material for metal
substitutes. Natural fibers have advantages such as environmentally friendly, low
density, recyclable, biodegradable, non-toxic, low cost, and good non-abrasive
and heat retaining properties.
The test carried out is a tensile test that is adjusted to the ASTM D3039
test standard using a Universal Testing Machine (UTM) tool to obtain stress and
strain values.
The results of the tensile strength of the agel leaf fiber composite
material with an epoxy matrix with fiber direction 0
0
and 90
0
are 9.588294 Mpa
and 9.519644 Mpa respectively, then the agel leaf fiber composite material with a
polyester matrix of 0
0
and 90
0
is equal to 7,236818 Mpa and 14.400 476 Mpa
respectively.
