Investigating the Mechanical Enhancement of Epoxy Composites with Human Hair

This study examines the utilization of human hair as a reinforcing material in epoxy-based composites. By conducting a series of experiments, the research investigates how various proportions of hair impact the properties of these composites. The results indicate that increasing the amount of hair significantly improves the strength of the materials. This research not only contributes to material engineering by repurposing a waste product but also holds potential for applications in industries such as automotive and aerospace where strong and lightweight materials are crucial.
