Composite materials have gained their presence in several industrial sectors. New materials, advanced material treatments and manufacturing methods have been introduced in research and developments today. Experimentation in composite materials has changed the people to come up with new innovations and alternative ideas in day today applications. This work focuses on obtaining the mechanical characterization and morphological study on composite materials which are prepared by compression moulding. The prefabrication tests were conducted to know the specific nature of each fibre material by conducting single fibre and FTIR test. This experimental measurement was observed the better mechanical properties from Tensile, Flexural and Impact test with the specimens of the prepared composite lamina of composite. The morphological study in fractured specimens was observed by using Scanning Electron Microscope and Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis. This research work were represented the mechanical characteristics and morphological behaviour of pirambu pineapple hybrid polyester composite and also will help us for implementation of new manufacturing applications with composite materials.
