Mechanical behaviour of natural fibre reinforced thermoplastic braided composite rods

In the present work, braided composite rods (BCRs) have been developed through braiding of polypropylene (PP) fibres around an axially oriented core, made of a mixture of PP and sisal fibres and subsequent consolidation of the produced structures under heat and pressure. Tensile properties of these...
