Abstract
The analytical design of the hybrid composite predicts its tensile properties at different fiber orientation using classical lamination theory. The critical volume fraction of the high elongation fiberyields 0.39 which defines the composite of minimum strength. The high elongation fiber (PET) contributes more in raising the hybrid composite strengthwhile the low elongation fiber (Kenaf) increases the composite modulus more inthe longitudinal direction. Six layers hybrid composite laminates were analyzed. The stacking sequence used was symmetric angle ply (0 0 , 45 0 , 90 0 ) with an overall thickness of 12mm .The thermal expansion coefficient of the laminate increases more than that of the individual ply. The overall analytical results confirm that thehybrid composite tensile properties haveincreased significantly as compared to single fiber reinforced composite.
