Particles reinforced polymer matrix composites were developed by mould casting method. 5 – 25 weight percent of particulate of mild steel and aluminium dross, which are metal waste were applied as reinforcement for the production of epoxy resin matrix composites. The unreinforced epoxy resin and composite specimens were subjected to microstructural, water absorption, tensile, Young’s modulus, impact, and hardness tests. The results showed that the hybrid specimen demonstrated the lowest water absorption of 0.01 %, highest tensile strength, elastic modulus, and impact energy of 81.05 MPa, 600 MPa and 17.24 J respectively at 15 wt. % filler content. The results indicated that the hybrid polymer matrix composite has potential for applications where low strength is required.
