BPS was used as reinforcement fibers in ABS matrix. Banana fibers were pretreated by using Sodium hydroxide solution with 5% concentration for 24 hours in order to enhance the adhesion interface between banana fibers and ABS Matrix. ABS/BPS composites were prepared at 0, 10, 20 and 30 wt% banana fibers. The ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and impact toughness for BPS/ABS composites at 0, 10, 20, 30 % fiber weight percentage were studied. The SEM observation for fracture surfaces was investigated. The thermal stability of the composites is studied using TGA test.
