Abstract | The emerging trend to utilization of biodegradable materials is one of the most significant advances in the field of materials science. In this context, Natural fibers have many superior properties compared to synthetic fibers like low density, cheaper, acceptable specific properties, and minimal health hazards and also they are renewable, eco-friendly and biodegradable. For this reason, natural fiber composite materials can be considered engineering materials and manufactured for various applications. The strength of the natural fiber composites can be enhanced by using various chemical treatments on the fibers, adding fillers with matrix and hybridization with synthetic fibers. But still, there is a lack of strength in these composites compared to other synthetic composites, wherever, the enriched properties of the composites can be achieved by weaving of natural fibers in mat form which makes the composites stronger and comparable to those of synthetic fiber. This research work is focused on enhancing the mechanical and thermal properties of three different varieties of fiber such as banana ribbon, nendran fiber and sisal fiber reinforced polymer composites by means of converting individual fibers into manmade twisted rope and further, rope is converted into rope woven mat using weaving machine. The different combination of composite plates such as Banana Ribbon Random (BRR), Banana Ribbon Rope Random (BRRR), Banana Ribbon Rope Vertical Mat (BRRVM), Nendran Fiber Random (NFR), Nendran Fiber Rope Random (NFRR), Nendran Fiber Rope Vertical Mat (NFRVM), Sisal Fiber Random (SFR), Sisal Fiber Rope Random (SFRR) and Sisal Fiber Rope Vertical Mat (SFRVM) reinforced polyester composites plates were fabricated. The mechanical properties such as tensile, flexural, impact and hardness test were carried out as per ASTM standards for all the combinations of composite plates |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
