Abstract

AbstractThe primary aim of this research is to look into the mechanical properties of hybrid composites materials. Hybrid composite laminates made different reinforcements have found use in the automotive industry and aerospace industries. These laminates incorporated the significant of the reinforcements used in constructions. Hybrid composite laminates comprising carbon fiber and kenaf bio fiber with changing stacking sequences over the hand layup process. Epoxy resin (LY556) and hardener (HY951) are present in the matrix material with a mixed ratio of 10:1. Four different hybrid laminates were produced with five order kenaf and of carbon in different stacking sequences. The arranged laminates were cut according to ASTM and exposed to mechanical properties. Fractured surfaces of the sample microstructure were analyzed.KeywordsCarbon fiberKenaf fiberHybrid polymer matrix compositeMechanical propertiesScanning Electron Microscope (SEM)
