ABSTRACT
The current research describes the synthesis and testing of FRP under tensile
loading and high temperature conditions. The FRP is produced using Vacuum
Infusion technique and cut in to different fibre sizes. The SEM (Scanning Electron
Microscope) analysis is performed to determine the effect of matrix maturity,
temperature, fibre inclination, and loading rate on fibre matrix. The findings have
shown relationship of fibre volume on thermal and mechanical characteristics of FRP.
Keywords: FRP, Tensile test, SEM

1. INTRODUCTION
The rapid growth in manufacturing has resulted in improved strength, toughness, density and
lower material costs with improved durability. Composites have emerged as one of those
materials that show such an improvement in properties that reveal their potential in a variety
of applications. Composites are a fusion of two or more components, one of which is in the
