Study on mechanical properties of epoxy based Kenaf/Banana/Glass fiber hybrid nano composites

Abstract

The composite materials usually contribute excellent, typical mechanical and physical properties as it combines the reinforcements to obtain the desirable properties while restraining their minimum desirable properties. At present the composite materials assume a huge part in the aviation division, vehicle segment and other connected science applications as they uncover the power level to weight proportion and modulus to weight extent. Elite composites created from glass, kenaf, banana and graphene filaments are utilized in polymeric networks broadly as application in aviation and space vehicle innovation. In the present study, the hybrid nano composite laminates were prepared with different weight percentage of graphene as nano filler and reinforcing material as kenaf, banana and glass fiber with epoxy resin. The results shows that by adding the graphene in epoxy resin improves the mechanical properties of hybrid nano composites and also found that the performance of kenaf/glass fiber hybrid nano composites is better than the banana/glass fiber hybrid nano composites.
