Water absorption of kenaf/glass/epoxy hybrid composites for insulator core

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2021
Abstract Kenaf fibres have gained substantial attracted considerable attention due to their economic feasibility and environmental acceptability. Natural fibre (kenaf) has started in mechanical and electrical applications by hybridising synthetic (glass) fibres. In recent years, the hybrid composite has been employed in various functions
