**Abstract**
 Effect of titanium dioxide (TiO2) as particulate reinforcement on some properties of coir fibre reinforced epoxy composite is investigated. This study reveals that incorporation of titania (TiO2) particulates as reinforcement results in enhancement of mechanical properties of coir-epoxy composites that decrease upon exposure of the composites to UV radiations. 1 Refs.
