Abstract : In this work, Natural rubber is used as matrix and Palmyra palm leaf stalk fibre is used as reinforcement. Palmyra
palm leaf stalk fibres are reinforced in three different lengths such as 3, 5, 10mm. 70:30 mix proportion (Matrix: fibre) is
used for the composite fabrication. The rubber composites are fabricated using a two-roll mill. Composites of size 150x
150mm are prepared and tested for tensile properties following ASTM standards. The fractured tensile fractured specimens
are then analysed for the fracture mechanism using SEM. It was observed that, the reinforcement of fibre in rubber improves
the properties of the composites also the change in fibre length had a positive impact on the increase in the mechanical
properties.
