Abstract: Sea shell is available in nature. In general, sea shell has more strong which incorporated with Orthophthalic resin. Sea shell particle size is varying in polymer matrix composites. In this composite, various sizes of particles are 75m, 150m, 300m, 425m and 600m and the content of particles is 30gm are used. Here, mechanical properties (impact strength, hardness, flexural strength, tensile strength) are evaluated as per ASTM standard and optimise the results. The fractured surfaces are analyzed with the help of SEM pictures.

Keywords: sea shell particle, resin, composite, mechanical properties.
