Physics statistical analysis of crystal violet adsorption onto activated bamboo fiber powder: Insights from thermodynamic functions

This current research scrutinizes the adsorption behavior of Crystal Violeton Activated Bamboo Fiber Powder (ABFP)for water purification. By leveraging four advanced statistical physics scenarios (Hill framework with single energy, Hill framework with dual-energy, Double-layer framework with single energy and Double-layer framework with dual energy), experimental data is meticulously fitted to elucidate the surface adhesion phenomenon by uncovering its decisive influencing metrics.Four convergence criteria (R2, RMSE, AIC and RSS) have been employed to identify the most accurate model while steriographic along with energetic-thermodynamic metrics have been inspected in response to combined effects of temperature and concentration. Major outcomes revealed that the fourth scenario exhibits the most favorable agreement with the measured points. The spatial arrangement factor n varied from 0.58 to 0.75 indicating that the dye retention can occur via two different orientations (parallel and non-parallel) with different percentages. In addition, the adsorption amounts at temperatures of 298, 308 and 318 K were 1403.13, 1365.75 and 1270.79 mg/g, respectively, revealing the exothermicity of crystal violet adsorption onto the pores of Activated Bamboo Fiber Powder. The estimated docking energies were below 40 kJ/mol, suggesting that physical forces primarily govern the surface attachment. Assessment of enthalpy and Gibbs free energy demonstrated that the adsorption process occursfeasibly, spontaneously and is accompanied by heat release. The pore size distribution (PSD) of (ABFP) are determined. Since, the Activated Bamboo Fiber Powder (ABFP) showed promising results for competitive adsorption, thus being of relevance to the industrial sector.

Effect of Mixing Methods and Black Conductive Fillers on Properties of Natural Rubber Composites

Carbon black, graphite, carbon nanofibers, carbon nanotubes, and metal fillers increase composite conductivity in natural rubber, which is electrically insulating. Depending on dispersion, conductive filler lowers insulating material resistivity. These materials are frequently used for electromagnetic/radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI) shielding, conductive flexible seals gaskets, and conductive mats used to prevent electrostatic damage to electronic devices. These elastomers could be used to make flexible solar cells or mechanical-to-electricity devices. Temperature, mixing time, shear rate, and cross-linking during vulcanization affect rubber electrical conductivity of composite. To study shear rate effects, vulcanizate of Natural Rubber-based composites filled with carbon black, millable carbon fiber powder, and synthetic graphite powder was prepared by open mixing (two roll mill) and close mixing (internal mixer). We compared how shear rate affects cure, stress-strain, and volume resistivity of conductive filler-based Natural Rubber composites. Increment in clearance of two roll mill during addition of rubber additives along with rubber of reduced the shearing force resulted in less dispersive and distributive mixing and stagnant points due to band formation on roll surface compared to intermix where compound movement had no stagnation point and long wings pushed material axially and two nogs pushed material in other chamber. Compared to two roll mill samples, the compound reached every point of the mixing chamber for best homogeneity, reducing cure time and improving stress-strain and volume resistivity.

Investigation of the hybridization effect of glass fibers and diboron trioxide epoxy composites on some mechanical properties

Abstract The mechanical behavior was most important in industry, and one way to enhance the mechanical properties involves preparing hybridized epoxy composites. Different additives (glass fiber and B2O3 powder) have various concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20, and 30% wt.) for B2O3, while glass fibers have a fixed concentration (10% wt.). Hybrid epoxy composites have been manufactured by the hand lay-up method. Mechanical investigations involve tensile tests, impact tests, and hardness tests. According to the results, increasing the boric oxide concentration increased the examined mechanical characteristics (strength, stiffness, strain-at-break, hardness, toughness, and fracture toughness). Hybrid materials with a weight percentage of 20% B2O3 and 10% glass fibers had the best mechanical properties. These findings are most likely due to the reinforcing elements being evenly distributed and scattered, which enhances mechanical characteristics. A slight decrease in the mechanical properties of the composite at 30% weight percentage of B2O3 and 10% glass fibers, which is related to the presence of voids and agglomerations, is thought to be a sign that the material has reached the saturation level of reinforcement and that the mechanical properties of the structure will collapse if more reinforcing materials are added.

Sustainable engineering polymer composites fabricated using delignified bamboo fiber as reinforcement and walnut shell powder as filler

Developing sustainable engineering materials using renewable resources and agro-wastes represents an effective method for reducing carbon emissions and environmental pollution. In this study, a novel approach to fabricating high-performance biomass-based polymer composites was presented. Specifically, partially delignified bamboo fiber (DBF) and walnut shell powder (WSP) were incorporated into the matrix, namely melamine-hexamethylenediamine-urea (MHU) resin which was previously known for its excellent interfacial compatibility. Mechanical property investigations show that the DBF, acting as the reinforcement, provided the hybrid composites with high flexural and tensile strength up to 220 and 120 MPa, respectively, greatly surpassing those of commercial wood-plastic composites, wood-based composites, and natural wood, making them promising structural materials. As the filler, walnut shell powder endowed the composites with high hardness (Shore D > 90) and an appealing mirror-like surface gloss. Owing to the protection provided by the MHU matrix, the composite containing 38 % MHU exhibited outstanding flame retardancy (UL 94-V0 grade), which was further supported by cone calorimeter test (CCT) results. An unexpected and intriguing finding is that the composites exhibited fluorescence under UV irradiation. The rare silvery-grey fluorescence color imparted self-anticounterfeiting property to the composites. This study demonstrated the significant potential of bamboo fiber and walnut shell in the development of sustainable engineering materials.

Characterization and properties of porous red mud–based geopolymer composites reinforced with carbon fiber powders

To obtain porous composites with high porosity and improved performance, porous geopolymer composites (CFP/RMG) were fabricated using alkali-excited red mud and carbon fiber powders (CFPs) using the foaming method. The synergistic effects of CFPs and H2O2 on the microstructure, pore structure, strength, and thermal properties of the porous samples were systematically investigated. CFPs were uniformly distributed on the pore walls of the samples. The total porosity decreased with CFPs and increased with H2O2, the density of CFP/RMG samples ranged from 0.57 ± 0.01 to 1.71 ± 0.05 g/cm3. The compressive strength of the composite samples increased from 0.54 ± 0.09 to 4.16 ± 0.24 MPa with an increase in CFPs from 0 to 12.5 wt%, and it decreased from 4.06 ± 0.23 to 0.47 ± 0.06 MPa with 1–5 wt% H2O2. Fiber bridging and fiber pullout contributed to the strength reinforcement of the whole composite. The porous composites also showed low thermal conductivity (0.176–0.680 W/(m·K)), which revealed that it had potential applications in the field of building materials in the future.

Graphene oxide synthesis from coconut fiber powder using triple superphosphate catalyst and its potency for secondary battery electrode

Coconut fiber, considered an organic waste, emerges as a promising alternative carbon source for graphene oxide production—a material characterized by its conductive nature due to oxidation and the introduction of functional groups. The synthesis process involves carbonization with varied holding times (10, 20, and 30 minutes) and the utilization of Triple Superphosphate (TSP) and Ferrocene catalysts at concentrations of 10 wt.% and 20 wt.%. Subsequently, the sonication method is employed to enhance the electrical conductivity of graphene oxide post-carbonization. Notably, the electrical conductivity tests, conducted using a sourcemeter, revealed the optimum performance at 20 minutes of carbonization duration and a 20 wt.% TSP catalyst concentration, yielding an impressive electrical conductivity of 11,489.86 S/m. These findings underscore the significance of tailored parameters in optimizing graphene oxide synthesis for applications such as high-conductivity battery anodes.

Preparation and characterization of ox bone powder and bamboo fibers reinforced hybrid epoxy composites

Composite materials are one of the fastest growing when compared with metal, ceramic, and polymer due to their high specific strength, stiffness, and versatile application in various fields. This study aimed to develop an ox bone powder and bamboo fiber-reinforced hybrid epoxy composite for stock and bumper applications and investigate the effect of the reinforcements on the composite’s mechanical properties. The reinforcements used in this work were random orientations of animal bone (ox) powder of 75 microns and bamboo fiber. The matrix used for this work was epoxy resin. Composite materials were prepared using the hand layup method with a 40% weight fraction of reinforcement (bone powder and bamboo fiber) and a 60% weight fraction of epoxy resin matrix. Five different combinations of bone powder and bamboo fiber with a fixed amount of epoxy resin were used for this work. The combinations of bamboo fiber and bone powder were: 40% bamboo fiber with 0% bone powder; 30% bamboo fiber with 10% bone powder; 20% bamboo fiber with 20% bone powder; and 0% bamboo fiber with 40% bone powder. The mechanical properties studied were compressive strength, impact strength, and flexural strength. In addition, water absorption was studied for all combinations. The maximum results of the flexural and impact strengths were 278.91 MPa and 7.5 J/m, respectively, at a 0:40 (bone powder: bamboo fiber) composite. The maximum compressive strength and the lowest absorption obtained were 283.3 MPa and 1.05%, respectively, at the 40:0 (bone powder: bamboo fiber) composite. For the hybrid composite case, optimal flexural and impact strengths were 236.72 MPa and 6.66 J/m, respectively, and water absorption was 1.52% at 10:30 (bone powder: bamboo fiber). Since reasonable flexural strength, impact strength, and water absorption were obtained with the hybrid composite of 10:30 (bone powder: bamboo fiber), this combination of the hybrid composite is recommended for stock and bumper applications.

Development of rare earth element and carbon fiber‐based filler for polyethylene—Mechanical and thermal performance

AbstractIn the present study, three fillers produced with carbon fiber powder (CFP) and rare earth elements were developed for low‐density polyethylene production. These fillers included CFP with a grain size of less than 400 microns and over 90% pure lanthanum and cerium oxides. Polyethylene was employed to ensure the thermoplasticity and homogeneity of the fillers. The fillers were mixed with the matrix material separately, first mechanically and then homogenously in the extruder, then the test bars were produced with an injection machine. In the mechanical tests, it was determined that the tensile strength of the test bars improved by ~20% and the elastic region increased due to the increasing amount of filler. Similarly, an improvement of about 40% in bending stress was realized. In addition, as the fluidity of the mixtures has improved, it has been possible to produce at lower temperatures and save energy in the production. Thermogravimetric analysis was conducted to determine the melting/crystallization temperatures and material losses in the compounds. The scanning electron microscope analysis showed that the fillers were irregularly distributed on the surface in parallel and perpendicular directions. In addition, x‐ray diffraction and energy dispersive spectroscopy analyses were performed on the surfaces.

Fracture behavior of environmentally friendly high-strength concrete using recycled rubber powder and steel fibers: Experiment and modeling

Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is becoming increasingly popular for its exceptional mechanical properties but suffers from high cost and limited ductility. To overcome these limitations, this study explores the development of cost-effective and ductile Environmentally friendly High-strength Concrete (E-HSC) by incorporating recycled steel fiber (RSF) and rubber powder into UHPC. Fracture properties and crack propagation behavior were examined through three-point bending fracture tests on notched beams with varying rubber powder (0 %, 5 %, 20 %, 35 % and 50 %) and recycled steel fiber (1 %, 2 % and 3 %) content. Digital Image Correlation method was Used to Measure Crack mouth opening displacement and Fracture process zone in the Fracture Process of E-HSC of the E-HSC were analyzed using the digital image correlation method. Results revealed that E-HSC with 5 % rubber powder exhibited superior fracture energy and double-K fracture toughness. The use of rubber powder and RSF enhances the ductility of concrete, with the characteristic length consistently increasing as the content of rubber powder and RSF increases. Additionally, a softening constitutive model was proposed to evaluate the fracture performance of E-HSC based on rubber powder and recycled steel fiber content. This research provides experimental data and theoretical insights for developing resilient E-HSC suitable for applications in significant structures.

Synthesis of geopolymer using glass fiber powder from retired wind blades: A new attempt to recycle solid waste in wind power industries

This study explores the potential of recycling and utilizing discarded wind turbine blades. It proposes a new method that upcycles the glass fiber powder (GFP) in these blades into geopolymer gel, offering a new solution for the recycling and treatment of retired wind blades. Analyses of the X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of the GFP raw material and its dissolution in concentrated alkali indicate a large content of vitreous and active silica-aluminum, suggesting its suitability for producing geopolymers through alkali activation. The effects of the alkali activator modulus (Ms), alkali-binder ratio (N/B), and water-binder ratio (w/b), raw material particle size, and initial curing temperature on the compressive strength of the specimens were comprehensively and systematically investigated. The reaction behavior, chemical structure, and microstructure of GFP-synthesized geopolymers were characterized by selective dissolution, microcalorimetry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy equipped with energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS). The results showed that gels were formed by the geopolymerization reaction between the GFP and alkali activator. The compressive strength of the specimens increased first and then decreased with increasing alkali activator Ms and N/B. However, increasing w/b led to a decrease in strength. Appropriately small particle sizes of the raw material and moderately increasing the initial curing temperature are beneficial to strengthen the compressive strength. The optimal 28 days compressive strength of 43.43 MPa was achieved with an activator Ms of 1.4, N/B of 10 %, w/b of 0.33, GFP with a D90 of 170 mesh, and an initial 24 h curing temperature of 60 °C. The results of this study can promote the utilization of waste wind blades in the production of sustainable building materials.

Evaluation of nutritional, technological, oxidative, and sensory properties of low-sodium and phosphate-free mortadellas produced with bamboo fiber, pea protein, and mushroom powder

This study examined the effects of replacing alkaline phosphate (AP) with bamboo fiber (BF), isolated pea protein (PP), and mushroom powder (MP) on the nutritional, technological, oxidative, and sensory characteristics of low-sodium mortadellas. Results indicated that this reformulation maintained the nutritional quality of the products. Natural substitutes were more effective than AP in reducing water and fat exudation. This led to decreased texture profile analysis (TPA) values such as hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness. The reformulation reduced the L* values and increased the b* values, leading to color modifications rated from noticeable to appreciable according to the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) index. Despite minor changes in oxidative stability indicated by increased values in TBARS (from 0.19 to 0.33 mg MDA/kg), carbonyls (from 2.1 to 4.4 nmol carbonyl/mg protein), and the volatile compound profile, the sensory profile revealed a beneficial increase in salty taste, especially due to the inclusion of MP, which was enhanced by the synergy with BF and PP. In summary, the results confirmed the potential of natural alternatives to replace chemical additives in meat products. Incorporating natural antioxidants into future formulations could address the minor oxidation issues observed and enhance the applicability of this reformulation strategy.

Thermo-Mechanical Properties of Particulate Banana Epoxy Composite with Fruit Waste (Dragon Fruit Peel) Micro Filler for Household Applications

This study evaluates the thermo-mechanical characteristics of eco-friendly composite made of particulate banana fiber (reinforcement), epoxy resin (matrix) and dragon fruit peel powder (micro filler). The composites were developed using compression moulding technique with 3 factors, 4 variations and Taguchi orthogonal array design (L16). The proposed filler characterization results revealed that the density was 0.97 g/cm3 and combination of C–O, Ca–O, and Ca–Co could improve mechanical strength. Composites with 5 mm fiber length, 40 wt.% fiber weight, and 15 wt.% filler weight have a maximum tensile strength of 25.58 MPa, flexural strength of 44.47 MPa, impact strength 180.33 J/m, and hardness of 82.50 SD. The best composite’s thermal, wear, water and fatigue studies were proposed to suit household applications. The proposed filler improves fiber-resin bonding, which increases thermal stability to 245 °C, wear resistance, decreases water absorption, and results in a fatigue life count of 121000 cycles. Thus, this study concluded that the increasing filler content and decreasing particulate size had an impact on the thermo-mechanical characteristics of banana-reinforced polymeric composites. As a result, an eco-friendly polymeric composite mixer coupler model was developed. Comparative structural and model analyses were performed using ANSYS R17.2. The analysis results confirmed that the proposed composite had higher natural frequencies of 2766.5 Hz and lower deformation values of 0.089293 mm. This proves the proposed eco-friendly composite is a suitable replacement for a synthetic mixer coupler.

Vat Photopolymerization of Ceramic Parts: Effects of Carbon Fiber Additives on Microstructure and Mechanical Performance.

Vat photopolymerization (VPP), as an additive manufacturing (AM) technology, can conveniently produce ceramic parts with high resolution and excellent surface quality. However, due to the inherent brittleness and low toughness of ceramic materials, manufacturing defect-free ceramic parts remains a challenge. Many researchers have attempted to use carbon fibers as additives to enhance the performance of ceramic parts, but these methods are mostly applied in processes like fused deposition modeling and hot pressing. To date, no one has applied them to VPP-based AM technology. This is mainly because the black carbon fibers reduce laser penetration, making it difficult to cure the ceramic slurry and thus challenging to produce qualified ceramic parts. To address this issue, our study has strictly controlled the amount of carbon fibers by incorporating trace amounts of carbon fiber powder into the original ceramic slurry with the aim to investigate the impact of these additions on the performance of ceramic parts. In this study, ceramic slurries with three different carbon fiber contents (0 wt.%, 0.1 wt.%, 0.2 wt.%, and 0.3 wt.%) were used for additive manufacturing. A detailed comparative analysis of the microstructure, physical properties, and mechanical performance of the parts was conducted. The experimental results indicate that the 3D-printed alumina parts with added carbon fibers show varying degrees of improvement in multiple performance parameters. Notably, the samples prepared with 0.2 wt.% carbon fiber content exhibited the most significant performance enhancements.

Thermal conductive enhanced phase change composites with high latent-heat for constant temperature thermal management

Phase change materials (PCMs) can absorb and release heat without the temperature changing to realize the constant temperature thermal management. The low thermal conductivity (K) of PCM molecules leads to slow heat absorbing and releasing. In this study, a polyethylene glycol (PEG) based cross-linked polyurethane network is synthesized to wrap PCMs microcapsules. The composites have a high latent heat (152–164 J g−1) at 38 °C. Carbon fiber (CF) and Al powder with high K is composted to improve the thermal conductivity of the PCMs. After doping with CF, the K increases to two-fold to 0.306 W m−1 K−1. The experimental result reveals that the heat transfer inside the PCMs is improved obviously after doping with CF, which is further verified by a simulation result, and the composites show excellent shape stability and latent heat retention rate (>92 %) under 30 days' cycle test. This thermal conductivity enhanced PCMs composite is also formable which may have the potential applications for the thermal management of electronic devices, such as chips, fast charging, and battery.

Polyaniline/hollow glass beads/carbon fiber powder composite film for multifunctional military tarpaulins

In this paper, a composite film with a thickness of 0.25 mm was prepared, which has the functions of infrared stealth, ultraviolet protection, sound absorption, and thermal insulation. Firstly, polyaniline was synthesized through chemical oxidative polymerization using aniline as a monomer, acetic acid as a dopant, and ammonium persulfate as an oxidant. Then, the synthesized polyaniline (PANI), hollow glass beads (HGB), and carbon fiber powder (CFP) were sequentially added to waterborne polyurethane, and a film coating machine was used to prepare a multifunctional composite film of PANI/HGB/CFP. Finally, the composite film's infrared properties, ultraviolet protection properties, sound absorption properties, thermal constants, resistance to water penetration properties, bending properties, tensile properties, chemical corrosion resistance, and aging resistance were tested. The results show that the prepared PANI/HGB/CFP composite film has an infrared emissivity of 0.668 and an ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) of 1072, indicating that it can block more than 99 % of ultraviolet rays. Additionally, it has an acoustic absorption coefficient of 0.386. At the same time, the thermal conductivity is 0.04629 W/mK, making it a highly efficient material for heat preservation and thermal insulation. The prepared PANI/HGB/CFP composite film is expected to be a new multifunctional military tarpaulin.

STRAIN GAUGE TESTING OF 3D-PRINTED CFRP SANDWICH STRUCTURE

In this article, the authors present composite sandwich-type CFRP structures and a study of their properties by strain gauge testing. The paper presents the modeling of a parameterized elementary unit serving as the core of a 3D printed structure using Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) technology. The properties of these structures with different outer layers made of pure epoxy resin and resin with 10% and 20% carbon fiber powder were then investigated. Based on the results of the strain gauge tests, material models were reconstructed for each resin layer, which can be used in computer FEM studies of more complex components. As an application example, a strength analysis of the driver's seat of a Greenpower car made with printed sandwich structures coated with carbon fiber powder resin was conducted.

Study of the Chemical Endurance of Particulate Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites

Polylactic acid (PLA) is a biodegradable thermoplastic made from lactic acid monomers obtained through fermented glucose in crops like wheat and corn. PLA has numerous applications, including industrial packaging, biomedical equipment, and membranes, due to its low toxicity, biodegradability, and recycling potential. However, little is known about the short-term aging effects of particulate reinforced PLA composites in complex environments. This study investigates the chemical endurance of various PLA composites before and after exposure to different chemicals and hygrothermal conditions. The results reveal that the fabrication processing method greatly affects the degradation rate. The PLA/Carbon Fiber Powder (CFP) samples had the highest chemical resistance towards degradation in 1% HNO₃ followed by 2% NaOH with a maximum mass increase of 2.8% and 3.9% respectively. The PLA/CFP samples showed lowest chemical resistance under a combination of water and aging temperature, with an average maximum weight gain of 9.64% throughout the three CFP loadings. Continuous test for 15wt% CFP sample under subsequent liquid immersion and hot air exposure had an insignificant mass loss of 0.76% but a very brittle surface with severe micro and macro cracks were present on the sample surface. In conclusion, while PLA/CFP composites demonstrate notable chemical resistance under certain conditions, the short-term aging effects, particularly under hygrothermal conditions, reveal the significance of fabrication processing methods and the potential brittleness induced by continuous exposure to specific environments, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive understanding of material behaviors.

Formulation and Characterization of New Experimental Dental Composites with Zirconium Filling in Different Forms.

Short glass fibers are generally used in posterior dental restorations to enhance the mechanical properties and improve the material microstructure. Two resin-based composites (S0 and SF) were formulated and characterized to investigate the influence of zirconium in their characteristics and properties. The organic part of the investigated materials was the same (BisGMA, TEGDMA, and a photochemical polymerization system), and in the inorganic part, besides quart, glassA, and hydroxylapatite with Zn, sample S0 contained strontium glass with zirconium and sample SF contained fiber powder of chopped zirconium. The samples were characterized by the degree of conversion (DC), mechanical properties, water sorption (WS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) before and after the WS test, and antimicrobial properties. The results obtained were subjected to one-way ANOVA and Tukey's statistical tests. Both samples had a high DC. Regarding the mechanical properties, both samples were very similar, except DTS, which was higher for the composite without fibers. After 14 days, the WS value of the SF sample was lower than that of the S0 sample. Water caused significant changes in the topography of the SF sample, but thanks to its antimicrobial properties and the diffusion phenomenon, SF had a more pronounced antimicrobial effect. This study shows that the addition of appropriate amounts of Sr-Zr-glass powder gives the material in which it is added similar properties to material containing chopped zirconium glass fiber powder. According to the antimicrobial test results, resin composites containing experimental zirconia fillings can be considered in future in vitro clinical studies for posterior reconstructions with significantly improved mechanical properties.

The results of this study contribute to the broader goal of promoting sustainable construction practices by improving the performance and versatility of papercrete. By identifying effective admixtures, this study offers practical guidance for architects, engineers, and builders seeking environmentally friendly alternatives in the pursuit of more resilient and energy-efficient building materials.

Impacts of Aramid Fiber (PPTA), Glass Wool (GW), Aluminum (Al), and Silicon Carbide (SiC) Particles on Mechanical Behavior of Epoxy Hybrid Composites and their Morphological Investigation

AbstractParticle‐reinforced polymer composites have figured prominently in technological appliances owing to their high mechanical modulus and strength. Due to the obvious demand for lighter but more resilient composites to substitute heavy metal parts, several investigations have been made into particle‐based composites. The current research investigates the impact of reinforcing aramid fiber (PPTA), glass wool (GW), aluminum (Al), and silicon carbide (SiC) powder into an epoxy matrix on aspects of mechanical and morphological characteristics. Hand lay‐up technology was performed to manufacture composites at five different degrees of reinforcement loading (5, 10, 20, 30, and 40 wt. %). SEM and optical microscopes were used for microstructural investigation in order to evaluate the cohesion and dispersion of the reinforcing particles across the matrix phase of the hybrid composites. The elongation at break, flexural strength, flexural modulus, and hardness of epoxy‐PPTA‐GW−Al‐SiC hybrid composites improved, whereas the tensile strength and impact strength decreased from 5 wt. % to 40 wt. % loading. Among fabricated hybrid composite compositions, the morphological and mechanical characteristics obtained at 40 wt. % PPTA, GW, Al, and SiC powder loading are the best among all others.
