Abstract

Abstract This manuscript aimed to examine the impact of the hybridization process of hybrid fibers consisting of carbon and basalt fibers on the properties of thermosetting resin blends composed of dicyanate ester of bisphenol-A (DCBA) and bisphenol-A based benzoxazine (BA-a) resins. According to data gathered, the mechanical properties of the hybrid fibers reinforced the DCBA/BA-a blend composites were chiefly improved when compared to the base samples’ properties, while the hybridized composites showed much enhanced thermal stability degradation at higher temperatures. The shielding evaluations disclosed that the integration of the hybrid fibers helped the DCBA/BA-a blend to possess excellent nuclear shielding properties. With respect to the properties of the as-used reinforcing systems, performing the structural and morphological analyses permitted us to prove that the enhanced quality of the reinforcing agents inside the thermoset resin blend was possibly behind these ameliorations in the investigated performances.
