Currently, the development of newer materials is gaining momentum as the automotive industries are mainly focussing on introducing bio degradable materials for their components. In this regard composite materials are playing a vital role. Among the various types of composites, natural fiber composites which use natural fibers like jute, abaca, raffia and neem are widely used in various automotive industries. This paper aimed to fabricate and investigate delamination behaviour of abaca-raffia
