Experimental Analysis on Treated and Untreated Grass/Carbon Hybrid Composite structures

Abstract

Hybrid composites are having the greatest potential for engineers in many applications. A hybrid polymer composite offers the designer to obtain the necessary properties to in a substantial extent by the choice of fibersres and matrix. In the present investigation, the mechanical properties of carbon and grass fibersres reinforced polyester hybrid composite were studied. The hand lay up technique was used for the fabrication of hybrid composites. The mechanical properties such as tensile strength, flexural strength and impact strength of the hybrid composites were evaluated as per the ASTM standards. The variation of mechanical properties such as tensile, flexural and impact properties of randomly oriented polyester based grass/carbon fiberre reinforced hybrid composites with different fiberre weight ratios have been studied. Comparison of treated and untreated fibersres was also studied. The mechanical properties were improved as the carbon fiberbre content increased in the matrix material.
