I
n this study, we figured Phenolic resin (Bakelite). Based composites strengthened with chemically treated doum fiber at different
packing from 10 to 40 wt. that were prepared by compression molding procedure that showed that These composites are
characterized particularly by mechanical and thermal properties presenting some kind of smoothness in their comportment that
were measured by some flow tests and cup .as a result, we found that Increasing fiber's weight percentage in these composites was
the solution for the Improvement of their properties. For example, adding chemical drum fibers [20 wt. %] is able to increase the
flexural properties significantly without losing strain values. For the thermal conductivities of composite illustrations were measured
by homemade system. Besides, we found gradual decrease in thermal conductivity for an incensement in fiber content. Plus, dynamic
mechanical analysis has shown the effect of tension, regularity and fiber charging as in the rheological properties of the composites.
