Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite has become one of the most important applications in the aerospace industry. More than 50% of the streamlined fuselage is made of composite material, and this will continue further due to technological advancement in the field of fiber-reinforced polymer composite material. Natural fiber (Bast, Stem, Leaf) are the most focusing in today’s era due to their environment-friendly nature. The development of 2D woven Biotex flax/PLA fiber-reinforced polymer composite integrated with alumina nano-filler is the main objective of the current study. This study mainly discussed the effect of alumina nanofiller using four concentrations from 0 to 3 wt% on the tensile and impact properties of sodium hydroxide treated and untreated biotex flax/PLA fiber-reinforced composite. The results exhibit that the increase in filler loading has improved tensile and impact properties. At 2 wt% filler loading, the tensile strength and impact strength was maximum. Further, increase the filler contents have adverse effects on mechanical properties. The results have witnessed better mechanical properties of treated compared to untreated reinforcement.
