In the present work, natural fiber composite material is processed by vacuum assisted resin transfer molding technique and the fibers are maize stalk fibers with matrix of unsaturated polyester resin. With suitable catalyst and accelerator composite material is fabricated and thermal properties for the material is examined by thermal gravimetric analyzer, differential scanning calorimeter and the results are also compared with finite element method.Book chapter
