Abstract
Abstract Hybrid composites are one of the prominent materials being extensively developed and are gaining momentum due to features like greater flexibility in design, high specific strength and reduced cost of manufacturing. Hybrid composites exhibit better mechanical properties when compared to traditional composites. This research work is concerned with the fabrication and evaluation of the physical and mechanical properties of a new polymer hybrid epoxy composite consisting of glass fiber, jute fiber mat, ZnS microparticles and LY556 Epoxy resin with HY951 Hardener. The specimens were prepared using hand lay-up technique as per ASTM standard & were tested for Tensile, Flexural, Interlaminar Shear Strength, Impact, Water Absorption Test, Density, Micro Hardness and the microstructure was evaluated by SEM analysis. Jute fibers resist bending stresses & hence on hybridization of fibers, better properties can be obtained due to supportive nature of the fibers. Selection and/or Peer-review under responsibility of The First Materials Research Society of Thailand International Conference.
