Now a day’s Natural Fibres Composites owing importance due to its Bio degradability, Light weight & Strength etc ., This project aims to investigate Mechanical Property evaluation of Jute fibre Eglass fiber, without chemical treatment and applied an compression load on the Jute fibre layers to be in uniform and Unidirectional. To evaluate the mechanical properties and weights of specimens are2 and 3 layeers taken, Epoxy & Hardener constant for all specimens. The Specimens prepared by Hand layup technique and specimen cuts with Manual Hacksaw frame and applied smooth filing to avoid notches during cutting. Testing’s for Mechanical properties evaluation used are tensile, and 3-Point Flexural testing’s on computerized UTM (INSTRON 3369). Hardness and Impact tests also performed per the ASTM standards.

Polymer matrix composites made from phenolic resin are filled with natural graphite powders. They are fabricated by compression molding technique. The density, electrical conductivity and flexural strength of composite are analyzed to determine the influences of mould pressure and mould pressing time on the physical, electrical and mechanical properties of composite. It is found that the density, electrical conductivity and flexural strength of composites increased with increasing mould pressure. Under pressure of 40 MPa for 60 min, the density, electrical conductivity and flexural strength of composites were 1.85 g/cm3, 4.35  103 S/cm and 70 MPa, respectively. The decreased gaps could be the main reason for the increasing of density, electrical conductivity and flexural strength as mould pressure increases. The results also show that the density of composites increased with increasing mould pressing time.
