Evaluation of the mechanical properties of hybrid composites reinforced with plant fibers

The incorporation of plant fibers into the matrix plays an interesting role. Natural fibers have been widely used as reinforcements in polymer matrix composites. Among all reinforcing fibers, natural fiber-based hybrid composites have attracted the attention of researchers as high-potential reinforcing materials for composite materials. These fibers are easily available in the form of agricultural products. Natural fibers are inexpensive, durable and lightweight materials for composite applications. In this experimental work, sisal fibers and date palm fibers were used as reinforcement in different ratios to fabricate hybrid composites by compression molding technique while maintaining a total fiber loading of 20 % by weight. Tensile tests, flexural tests, and impact tests were carried out, water absorption was also determined. The results obtained show that the composite composed of a combination of 16% sisal fibers and 8% date palm fibers has better tensile properties with a stress value of 6.88 N/mm2 and a value of Izod impact of 43.218 J/m. As well as both composites showed a better bending stress value of 67.29 N/mm2, the water absorption test was carried out for four days with 120 hours analysis. This research focuses on the fact that specimen-2 containing 16% sisal and 8% date palm fibers absorbs less water than other composites.

Kenaf/glass fiber‐reinforced polymer composites: Pioneering sustainable materials with enhanced mechanical and tribological properties

AbstractHybrid kenaf/glass fiber reinforced polymer composites have emerged as promising structural materials, garnering significant attention due to their unique blend of natural kenaf fibers and synthetic glass fibers. However, despite their potential, there remains a gap in the comprehensive understanding of their quasi‐static mechanical behavior, creep resistance, and fatigue performance. This paper addresses this gap by presenting recent advancements in studying these key properties of hybrid composites. Studies reveal that the combination of kenaf and glass fibers results in enhanced tensile, flexural, and impact strengths compared to individual fiber composites. Additionally, the hybridization offers improved creep resistance, with the glass fibers reinforcing the polymer matrix against deformation under sustained loads. Furthermore, investigations into fatigue properties demonstrate the resilience of hybrid composites to cyclic loading, contributing to prolonged service life in high‐stress environments. By elucidating the interplay between kenaf and glass fibers, this review underscores the potential of hybrid composites in various structural applications. The synergistic effects between natural and synthetic fibers offer a balance between sustainability, performance, and durability, making hybrid kenaf/glass fiber reinforced polymer composites a compelling choice for industries seeking lightweight, high‐performance materials in which aligns with the sustainable development goals (SDGs) especially on Goal 12.Highlights In composite engineering, combining glass and kenaf fibers could cut production costs, yield high‐performance materials, and promote green technology. Substituting part of the glass fiber with kenaf can enhance the strength‐to‐weight ratio and promote greater biodegradability in current synthetic composites. Quasi‐mechanical properties of hybrid kenaf/glass‐based composites was enhanced by optimal stacking sequences, filler addition, and fiber treatment. Failures due to fatigue and creep can be reduced by hybridizing kenaf/glass fiber composites can prevent in polymer composite due to enhance elastic modulus. Enhanced tribological performance of hybrid kenaf/glass‐based composites due to less damage in microstructure via good interlocking of kenaf and glass in matrix.

Mechanical properties of web kapok/fiberglass-epoxy hybrid composites for marine structures

Abstract This study investigates the mechanical properties of hybrid composites composed of web kapok fibers and fiberglass reinforced with epoxy for potential application in the marine industry. The web kapok fibers were carefully processed using a carding technique to ensure better alignment and consistency. Various composite configurations were produced, and extensive mechanical testing was conducted, including flexural, tensile, and impact tests. The results revealed that the presence of two web kapok fiber layers within the composite significantly increased flexural strength and flexural modulus compared to pure fiberglass laminates. However, a single layer of web kapok fabrics exhibited the highest tensile strength, although it decreased with additional layers. The impact strength of these hybrid composites also showed promising results, especially when compared to raw fiberglass composites. Moreover, these composites exhibited improved resistance to water absorption and corrosion, making them potentially suitable for marine applications. This research highlights the potential of web kapok/fiberglass hybrid composites as an eco-friendly alternative for marine engineering, with implications for reduced environmental impact and sustainable technology in the industry.

An Experimental Study of the Properties of Carbon Fiber/Epoxy Composites Mixed with Rubber Granules

In this research work, the mechanical properties of hybrid composites reinforced with woven carbon fiber mats particulated with natural rubber powders as fillers in the epoxy resin matrix were investigated. The specimens were prepared by the hand-layup process followed by a vacuum bag moulding process. The vacuum moulding reduces the voids or cavities in the hybrid composites. The natural rubber powder was added in different weight proportions (5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%), and carbon fiber is added in 20% for all the specimens. Experiments such as tension testing, flexural testing, water absorption/acid corrosion/base corrosion tests, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), and scanning electron microscopic (SEM) analysis were conducted to evaluate the epoxy carbon rubber (ECR) composites. The tensile and flexural test findings demonstrated that the addition of 10% natural rubber particles gave better results as compared with other proportions. The water/acid/base absorption test findings reveal that the ECR composites are not affected by water/acid/base. The DMA teat findings show that ECR composites having 10% natural rubber have higher damping factor, storage, and loss modulus. The SEM analysis shows that ECR hybrid composites with 10% rubber particles contained a uniform distribution of rubber particles over reinforcement, and also, there were no cracks and voids. According to this research findings, ECR hybrid composites with 10% natural rubber particles prepared during the vacuum bag moulding process can be used to prepare aerospace interior components.

Synergistic effects of cold rolling and age hardening on the hardness and tensile characteristics of AA6061 hybrid composites

The present study involves the fabrication of aluminium alloy 6061 matrix hybrid composites with varying weight fractions of silica sand and copper particles by employing the conventional stir casting method. The combined influence of age hardening (AH) and low temperature thermomechanical treatment (LTMT) on the hardness and tensile properties of AA6061 hybrid composites was investigated. The uniform dispersion of the particles in the matrix was confirmed by microstructure analysis and the improvement of Brinell hardness values. The composites exhibited higher tensile strength and hardness than the base alloy. Both AH and LTMT enhanced the properties of the hybrid composites and a comparison between them revealed the best results for LTMT hybrid composites. The LTMT hybrid composite with 3 wt% silica sand and 3 wt% copper (3S3C) subjected to 12% rolling deformation and aged at 100 °C had the highest hardness and tensile strength of 144.26 HV and 290 MPa respectively. The hardness and tensile strength of AA6061-3S3C hybrid composite subjected to LTMT in peak aged condition showed an improvement of 125 and 97% respectively when compared with those of AA6061 alloy. Fracture surface analysis of the thermomechanical treated composites in peak aged condition showed a mixed mode of failure dominant with the ductile fracture.

Development of hybrid green composites by dual natural fibers (jute/bamboo) reinforcement and investigation of their mechanical behavior

AbstractThis study aims to investigate the mechanical properties of natural fiber hybrid composites, specifically those based on jute and bamboo fibers. Jute fibers made in the form of highly scattered mesh and fine‐meshed bamboo mat were selected as reinforcing materials. The highly scattered meshed jute fabric composite showed poor mechanical properties owing to resin agglomeration, leading to the brittle fracture of the composite before elongation. In contrast, the randomly oriented fine‐meshed bamboo fabric performed better in terms of both mechanical properties and strain energy absorption under the same loading conditions. Hybridization with fine bamboo mesh fibers can be a solution to improve the mechanical properties of jute fabric composites. The tensile, flexural, and in‐plane shear properties of the composites are investigated in our study. We found that hybridizing a fine‐meshed bamboo mat with jute fabric resulted in an improved mechanical performance of the composite. Composite panels have been manufactured using vacuum assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM). Experimental and numerical methods have been used to investigate the flexural behavior. Of the stacking sequences considered, the (J/B4/J) stacking showed the highest flexural strength (141.1 Mpa) and the (B2/J2/B2) 2/2 stacking sequence showed the minimum flexural strength. The alternating stacking sequence (B/J/B/J/B/J) exhibited intermediate properties. The randomly oriented bamboo fabric near the neutral axis enhanced the properties of the hybridized composite. This was verified numerically using the ANSYS ACP software.Highlights Mechanical behavior of Hybrid composite of two natural fibers was investigated. Vacuum assisted resin transfer molding was used to manufacture composite panels. Tensile, in plane shear, 3 point flexural tests and SEM micro analysis were done. FEA was used to validate and compare the experimental and numerical results. Resin agglomeration was improved by fibers with better resin impregnation property.

Study of Abaca/Carbon/Epoxy Hybrid Composite Properties as an Alternative Prosthetic Socket Material

Composites of natural fiber-reinforced thermoplastic and thermoset polymers have been studied for developing prosthetic socket materials. This study investigated the abaca fiber (AF)/carbon fiber (CF)/epoxy (EP) hybrid composite properties: i.e., tensile, flexural, impact, thermal, and water absorption, by varying AF and CF ratios of 1: 0, 0: 1, 2: 1, 3: 1, and 4: 1 with 80 vol% epoxy resin. The cracks formed in bending test specimens were characterized with an optical microscope, whereas the tensile fracture surface was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results confirmed that the mechanical properties of the CF/EP composite are the highest. The higher the AF/CF ratio, the lower the hybrid composite's mechanical properties and the higher the water absorption. The hybrid composite with a 2:1 AF/CF ratio achieved the highest tensile and flexural strengths of 70 MPa and 103 MPa, respectively, and the lowest water absorption of 7.89%. Based on the experimental results, a simulation of the prosthetic socket was performed using Autodesk Inventor 2019 integrated with ANSYS Workbench 2019 R1, resulting in von Mises stress of 2.14 MPa and deformation of 0.015 mm. Besides, its thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) resulted in good thermal stability.

The effect of hybrid thermal fillers on thermal conductivity of carbon fiber reinforced polybutylene terephthalate composites

AbstractThe use of functional polymeric composites with superior thermal properties, capable of replacing conventional polymers, has increased in recent years, particularly in the electrical‐electronics sector where thermal management is crucial. Carbon fiber (CF) polymer–matrix structural composites have relatively high in‐plane thermal conductivity but low through‐plane conductivity. In order to further enhance the through‐plane and in‐plane conductivity of CF‐reinforced polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) composite, a hybrid loading approach was employed, incorporating synthetic graphite (SG), boron nitride (hBN), aluminium nitride (AlN) and graphene (G) in composite formulations. It was found that the in‐plane conductivity of PBT‐20CF‐20SG‐3G and the through‐plane conductivity of PBT‐20CF‐20SG‐3AlN are 69% and 25% higher, respectively, than those of PBT‐40CF. However, the mechanical properties of hybrid composites exhibit lower values compared to those of CF‐reinforced PBT composites. The tensile strength value of PBT‐40CF is about 33% and 57% higher than those of PBT‐20CF‐20SG‐3G and PBT‐20CF‐20SG‐3AlN. Moreover, the flexural strength of PBT‐40CF is about 48% and 38% higher than those of PBT‐20CF‐20SG‐3G and PBT‐20CF‐20SG‐3AlN, respectively. The density value of PBT‐40CF is lower than that of the composites of PBT‐20CF‐20SG. From TGA it was observed that the thermal stability of PBT‐40CF is comparable to that of the composites PBT‐20CF‐20SG. From the conducted study, it can be proposed that the hybrid combination of SG, hBN, AlN and G can be utilized to achieve higher thermal conductivity values, instead of relying solely on CF in the composites. © 2024 The Authors.

Modifying the properties of polyamide 6 with high‐performance environmentally friendly nano‐ and microsized reinforcing materials

AbstractIn this study, we investigated the morphological and mechanical properties of hybrid composites with a polyamide 6 (PA6) matrix and reinforced with basalt fibers (BFs) and halloysite nanotubes (HNTs). The presence of reinforcing materials fundamentally changed the behavior of the molecules, which was morphologically manifested in the change in the ratio of the rigid and the mobile amorphous phase. The x‐ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopic images showed the crystal nucleating effect of the halloysite nanotubes. Based on these, we concluded that around the basalt fibers, an interphase is formed, while around the nanoparticles, a two‐layer interphase is created, the inner layer of which is semicrystalline, while the outer layer is rigid amorphous (RA). The nanoparticles are surrounded by a semicrystalline interphase, which is surrounded by an RA interphase. This overlaps with the interphase of the basalt fibers, therefore the halloysite nanotubes can effectively help the stress transfer from the matrix to the basalt fibers. The mechanical properties of the samples also reflected this: the hybrid composites had a significantly higher tensile modulus, tensile strength, and an unchanged elongation at break compared to the composite reinforced with only basalt fiber.Highlights Environmentally friendly polyamide 6 matrix hybrid composites were prepared. Uniform distribution of halloysite nanotubes was achieved. Enhanced mechanical properties were observed for hybrid composites. Halloysite nanotubes aid stress transfer from matrix to basalt fibers. Halloysite nanotubes act as crystalline nucleating agents.

Influence of the second metal component on processing and selected properties of Al2O3-Cu hybrid composites

The aim of the work was to determine the influence of metallic phase content on the obtained properties of hybrid composites from the ceramics-metal system. Six series of samples from three systems (Al2O3-Cu, Al2O3- Cu-Ni and Al2O3-Cu-Cr) with two different contents of metallic phase (2.5 and 10 vol.%) were prepared by uniaxial pressing and pressure-less sintering. The research carried out in this work used the classic idea of material engineering, assuming the optimization of the material?s functional properties by shaping the microstructure in a suitably modified technological process. The possibility of producing composite samples with density exceeding 95%TD was confirmed. There was no significant effect of the composition and the share of the metallic phase on the obtained values. The microstructure observations showed that the addition of the second metallic component had a positive effect on the size of the metallic particles, limiting the formation of metal clusters of significant size visible in the case of Al2O3-Cu samples. Compressive strength tests have shown that the addition of the second component to the metallic phase has a positive effect on the compressive strength of the material.

A comparative study on the influence of MWCNT, GO, and Al(OH)3 gel matrix modification on hierarchical structured composite reinforced with needle-punched jute fiber and glass fiber

The main objective of this paper was to identify the influence of different filler materials on the properties of hybrid composites. The hybrid composites were fabricated using randomly oriented glass fiber mats, needle-punched jute fiber mats, and epoxy resin as the matrix material. Three different kinds of filler materials were studied: Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs), Graphene Oxide (GO), and Aluminum Hydroxide (AlOH) nanoparticles. The secondary reinforcements were dispersed in the epoxy matrix through ultrasonication. The composites were made by conventional hand lay-up followed by applying high pressure and temperature under a hydraulic press to effectively cure and minimize voids within the final composite. These were compared with the properties of the unmodified composite containing no filler. The influence on mechanical properties was evaluated through tensile, flexural, and impact tests. Failure modes of the fractured tensile specimen were observed through Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) analysis was done to observe the changes in the chemical structure upon the addition of secondary reinforcements. Lastly, water absorption behavior and flame retardancy were observed as well. The results showed that MWCNT resulted in the composite exhibiting superior properties and GO, on the contrary, led to the deterioration of the properties. This could be because an optimum concentration of MWCNT was used, whereas this was not the case for GO filler. The addition of MWCNT resulted in a more substantial but brittle composite, while AlOH enhanced the ductility of the composite by compromising the overall strength. Hence, it can be concluded that MWCNT resulted in the formation of composites with the most desired properties.

Analysis of mechanical and water absorption properties of hybrid composites reinforced with micron-size bamboo fibers and ceramic particles

Abstract Bamboo and its hybrid composites were made using the hand lay-up method to evaluate the change in mechanical and physical properties that occurred through filler addition. Density measurements and tensile test results showed an increment in values when a certain percentage of silicon carbide (SiC) was added. As the SiC percentage grows from 0 to 6 %, the density of the hybrid composite increases from 1.15 to 1.36 gm/cc whereas tensile strength increases from 37 MPa to 42 MPa when 4 wt% SiC is added in 20 wt% of the bamboo composite. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis of tensile fractured samples further supported the improvement in tensile characteristics. To examine the impact and hardness characteristics, composites were subjected to the Charpy impact test and hardness test. 4 wt% of SiC addition in 20 wt% of the bamboo composite decreased the impact strength from 28.79 to 27.43 (×10−3 kJ/m2) and increased the hardness from 44 to 55 Hv. The composites’ water absorption behavior demonstrated that the addition of filler lifts the composite’s resistance to absorbing water, preserving the composites’ dimensional firmness and mechanical qualities.

A novel design of three‐dimensional/unidirectional hybrid composites to balance in‐plane and interlaminar mechanical properties

AbstractThe working condition of the rail transit components such as bogies is complicated, so the high comprehensive performance of composite parts is desperately required. However, existing pure three‐dimensional braided or laminated composites have been unable to satisfy the cooperative demand of in‐plane and interlaminar properties. In this paper, a novel design of three‐dimensional braided/unidirectional (3D/UD) hybrid composite is proposed to balance the in‐plane (tensile, compression, bending), interlaminar (interlaminar shear, low‐speed impact) properties of the composite. The effects of different 3D/UD mixing ratio and layup sequence on the mechanical properties and damage mechanism of hybrid composites were studied by the parametric analysis of the experimental test results, and the comprehensive mechanical properties of the hybrid structure were optimized by COPRAS evaluation method. The results show that the larger the proportion of unidirectional layer, the better the mechanical property in‐plane, but the worse interlayer property. In addition, the change of layup sequence induces a complex nonlinear relationship between 3D/UD mixing ratio and mechanical properties. Combined with microscopic failure characterization results, it is found that the sandwich structure and the addition of uniformly distributed interfacial layer can improve the mechanical properties of the hybrid composite. The optimization results show that the sandwich structure hybrid composite UD6/3D/UD6 with the best balance between in‐plane and interlaminar properties was selected by COPRAS. Compared with pure 3D composites, the comprehensive mechanical properties of UD6/3D/UD6 are increased by 53.9%, which provides a reference for the structural design of hybrid composites in the future.Highlights A novel design of 3D/UD hybrid composite is proposed to balance the in‐plane and interlaminar properties. The influence regularity of 3D/UD mixing ratio and layup sequence on properties of hybrid composites were obtained. The mixing failure mechanism of interlayer and in‐plane was revealed. The optimal structure UD6/3D/UD6 under complex working conditions was obtained by COPRAS.

Influence of Water Absorption on Mechanical and Morphological Behaviour of Roystonea-Regia/Banana Hybrid Polyester Composites

This study investigated the properties of hybrid composites made from Roystonea-Regia and banana fibers for potential applications in industries requiring lightweight, environmentally favorable, and mechanically strong materials. The analysis of density and void fraction revealed that the addition of banana fibers increased the composite's density, despite the fact that the actual density was slightly lower than the theoretical density due to confined gases during fabrication. The results of tensile tests revealed that water absorption negatively affected tensile strength, whereas alkali treatment and hybridization enhanced performance. The composition of 10 wt % Roystonea-Regia and 5 wt % banana had the highest tensile strength of 64.76MPa, which was attributable to the hydrophilicity and hydration content of the banana fiber. Further flexural and impact experiments confirmed that the influence of water absorption of composites showed a decrement in mechanical properties. The highest impact strength of 45.28 J/m and flexural strength of 75.6MPa were noted for 10 wt % Roystonea-Regia and 5 wt % banana. In addition, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis revealed that alkali treatment improved fiber-matrix interface bonding and roughened fiber surfaces, thereby enhancing the composites' overall performance. The study provides precious insights into the potential of Roystonea-Regia and banana hybrid composites for industrial applications as lightweight, environmentally friendly, and mechanically robust materials.

Tensile, bending, and impact properties of laminated carbon/aramid/glass hybrid fiber composites

Abstract In this study, hybrid (carbon, glass, and aramid) fabric epoxy composite laminates were fabricated with different layering sequences by hand lay-up. The effects of layering arrangements of laminated composite fibers on the mechanical properties of hybrid composites were investigated. Tensile, bending, and impact tests were performed to obtain the mechanical behaviors of hybrid composites. It was found that the layering sequences significantly affect the tensile, bending strength, and impact energy. As a result of the tensile tests, the highest tensile strength was obtained in the 3C + 3G combination. The highest load-carrying capacity in three-point bending tests was obtained in the 2G + 2A + 2C combination. The combination with the highest impact energy was 2C + 2G + 2A, and the lowest was 3C + 3G. It has been observed that hybrid composites containing aramid fiber absorb higher impact energy than others. The results showed that the layering sequences are essential in hybrid composites with the same fiber and layer number.

Aluminium hybrid composites: A review of reinforcement materials and reinforcement philosophies

Aluminium hybrid composite reinforcement technology is a response to the demands of advanced engineering materials. The motive behind the use of aluminium hybrid components in the transport, agriculture and mining sectors is based on the requirement for weight reduction and in pursuit of high efficiency and performance at a reduced cost. The performance of these materials is largely dependent on selecting the right combination of reinforcing materials, since most of the physical, chemical, mechanical properties and processing parameters such as particle size, weight percent of reinforcement and fabrication method were largely associated with the reinforcement. This paper attempts to review the different materials that have been used as reinforcements and the reinforcement philosophy adopted by several researchers with a view to establishing the effects of the reinforcement materials on micro structural, mechanical and tribological properties of hybrid composites. The processing methodology and its effects on aluminium hybrid composites have also been reviewed with a view to suggesting the best applications of aluminium hybrid composites.

An experimental study on the hydrothermal aging effect on the free vibration properties of hybrid aramid/glass/epoxy composites: Comparison of sea water and distilled water

AbstractThe purpose of this experimental work is to investigate the impact of hydrothermal aging on the viscoelastic characteristics of hybrid aramid/glass/epoxy composites. In addition to the hybrid composites prepared by vacuum infusion method in two different hybrid configurations ([G3A3]S, [A3G3]S) and two non‐hybrid composite groups ([G6]S, [A6]S) were included for comparison purposes. Composite samples were kept in 4 different aging environments (distilled water 25°C, distilled water 70°C, seawater 25°C, and seawater 70°C) for 6 weeks. To assess the dynamic properties (natural frequency and damping ratio) of composites, a free vibration test was conducted. The vibration test results of the samples were calculated by the half‐power bandwidth method. The results revealed that hydrothermal aging did not have serious effects on first‐mode natural frequency. It was observed that the damping ratios of hybrid composites increased after hydrothermal aging when compared with unaged samples. The results from dynamic aspects like the storage modulus and loss modulus were consistent among themselves. The parameters of the storage modulus and loss modulus have both decreased as a result of hydrothermal aging. In addition, the results proved that the rise in temperature accelerated the degradation in mechanically deteriorated composite materials. It was also found that aging in seawater was induced to more deterioration of hybrid and non‐hybrid composite materials.Highlights The order of the fabrics play an important role in free vibration properties of hybrid composites. Aging hybrid composites at different temperatures affects their free vibration properties. and values decreased more as the temperature increased. Hydrothermal aging has increased the dumping ratio values of composite materials.

Investigation on mechanical properties of novel natural fiber-epoxy resin hybrid composites for engineering structural applications

Polymers and fibers are the main components of cementitious composite materials to reinforce concrete. The synthetic fibers used in concrete composites typically weigh and also, and they are easily subjected to thermal degradation. To tackle the above issues, researchers developed various natural fiber-based composites. In the paper, the mechanical characteristics of hybrid composites were examined. The hybrid composites were developed using Madar, Gongura, and Hibiscus cannabinus fibers. The polyester resin was the matrix. The fibers were treated chemically using a 5% sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution. The fibers were then carefully cleaned with distilled water twice and baked for 70 min at 60 °C. For the evaluation of the tensile, flexural, and impact properties of the hybrid composites, specimens were made in accordance with ASTM standards. The treated composite sample (S3) specimen exhibits a tensile strength (TS) of approximately 34.720 N/mm2, flexural strength (FS) of 77.957 MPa, and flexural modulus (FM) of 1548.588 GPa. The average water absorption of the sample is only 2.45%. The hardness and impact strength (IS) of the samples are also superior to those of several other composites studied in the literature. Hence, the proposed hybrid composites could be a potential material for reinforcing the concrete composites to provide a higher service rate and greater durability to the structures.
