Abstract

According to sustainable development approaches in the world, there are tendencies to save renewable resources, or resources with a long recovery time. This research aims to develop new composite materials based on the renewable resource in the form of hemp fibers. The article shows the results of research of mechanical characteristics (impact toughness, tensile strength, hardness) of polymer composite that is fiber-reinforced by technical hemp. The effect of size of fibers and method of structuring the polyester matrix on the mechanical properties is studied. The optimal composition of the composite, which provides better mechanical properties, is defined. It is determined that the investigated composites can be used as construction material based on renewable source.
