In this project the types of laminates (EFGS-I and EFGS-II) were fabricated. The mechanical properties of tensile, flexural, inter laminar shear stress, impact test and TGA are conducted. The test specimens were prepared as per ASTM standards. From the test results the tensile strength and impact strength of EFGS-II laminates exhibits higher values than compared to EFGS-I laminates. The flexural and inter laminar shear stress and slightly less for EFGS-II when compared to EFGS-I laminate. In TGA Analysis sample 2 has higher temperature when compared to sample 1. The reasons for these values discussed. These types of laminates are useful in the fabrication for automobile parts and aircraft parts.
