Ramie fiber in combination with glass has proved to be excellent for making cost effective composite materials. They are prepared by hand layup method using E-glass and ramie fibers. The resin used in the preparation of composites was epoxy. Fiber reinforced composites were hybridised at two weight percentages (20% and 30%). Samples prepared were tested to evaluate its properties, such as tensile strength, flexural strength, impact strength, and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Scanning electron microscope analysis revealed the morphological features. HFREC (Hybrid fiber reinforced epoxy composite) exhibited better mechanical properties than the individual samples.
