Abstract
Composite materials are multi-phase materials in which
the phase distribution and geometry can be controlled in order to
optimize one or more properties depending upon our requirement
and application of the composites. The purpose of the paper was to
enhance this, as we fabricated the composites using Natural particle
reinforced polymer composites. Epoxy resin along with Sago starch
particles were used to prepare the specimens in various weight
proportions. In order to study the characterization of the composite
specimens various test were conducted which include tensile test,
Compression test, Flexural test and Water absorption test.. This
paper consists of all the literature required, fabrication processes,
testing methods and the analysis about the characterization of the
fabricated composite
