Abstract
Today's industries are actively seeking innovative materials that offer specific advantages, such as low cost, high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, fracture resistance, and excellent moisture resistance. One such advancement is the development of hybrid polymer composite materials, achieved through the combination of different fiber reinforcements like synthetic fibers, natural fibers, and metal wire mesh. This amalgamation of fibers has proven to be a promising method for enhancing the mechanical properties of composite materials. This review paper focuses on studies that have investigated the hybridization of composite materials and its impact on their static and dynamic properties. Notable improvements have been observed in specific tensile strength, low-velocity impact strength, resistance to crack propagation, and fire resistance. The review examines relevant literature that involves the use of metallic reinforcement in the form of wire mesh bound with fibers to create hybrid polymer composite materials. The effects of this hybridization on mechanical performance are assessed through various quasi-static and dynamic tests. Additionally, the paper explores the sustainability of these hybrid materials in various structural applications. Furthermore, the review includes studies on modern modeling and simulation methods used to understand the resulting properties attributed to hybridization.
