“…In separate studies, Tsampas et al [ 9 ] evaluated the effect of monolithic and hybrid multidirectional composites laminates on compressive performance. Through the fractography analysis, the studies showed that the hybridization via multidirectional laminates was greatly influenced by the compressive performance by showing the delamination and interlaminar fracture at the hybrid interface which was more detrimental than that at the monolithic interface [ 121 ].…”

“…Hybridization offers new opportunities to broaden the function of the composite materials, particularly in advanced applications by improving the toughness or impact resistance [ 2 , 9 ]. Hybrid composites also provide more design freedom compared to non-hybrid composites, which leads to a synergetic effect not possessed by any one material alone.…”

In the field of hybrid natural fiber polymer composites, there has been a recent surge in research and innovation for structural applications. To expand the strengths and applications of this category of materials, significant effort was put into improving their mechanical properties. Hybridization is a designed technique for fiber-reinforced composite materials that involves combining two or more fibers of different groups within a single matrix to manipulate the desired properties. They may be made from a mix of natural and synthetic fibers, synthetic and synthetic fibers, or natural fiber and carbonaceous materials. Owing to their diverse properties, hybrid natural fiber composite materials are manufactured from a variety of materials, including rubber, elastomer, metal, ceramics, glasses, and plants, which come in composite, sandwich laminate, lattice, and segmented shapes. Hybrid composites have a wide range of uses, including in aerospace interiors, naval, civil building, industrial, and sporting goods. This study intends to provide a summary of the factors that contribute to natural fiber-reinforced polymer composites’ mechanical and structural failure as well as overview the details and developments that have been achieved with the composites.

“…Numerical models employing cohesive elements were able to accurately capture this delamination mode observed in the experiments and were shown to give excellent correlation with the ultimate strength. Future work will focus on incorporating damage models capable of modelling transverse matrix cracking which has been shown to be an important damage mechanism especially in compression [32][33][34].…”

Ply-overlap hybrid technique for joining dissimilar composite materials

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Hybridisation of multiple materials is emerging as a key strategy to achieving high performance lightweight structures while keeping the cost low. Fundamental to creating strong and cost-effective hybrid composites is the ability to efficiently join dissimilar materials. Herein we present a novel cocuring ply-overlap joint technique for integrating dissimilar composite materials. Experimental studies are conducted to identify the dominant failure mechanisms and the effect of design parameters, such as the spatial distances between ply terminations and overlap length, on the strength of hybrid composite ply-overlap joints. To enable optimisation of ply-overlap joints, analytical and computational models are developed and validated against the experimental data. The results demonstrate that ply-overlap joints are capable of approaching the un-notched strength of the glass composite material. The validated predictive tools enable design optimisation of hybrid composite structures.

“…Therefore, this phenomenon has stimulated the attention of many researchers to develop sustainable, active packaging material [ 9 ]. Therefore, the design of the packaging should consider not only shelf-life, cost, and protection, but also user-friendliness and environmental sustainability [ 10 ].…”

A Review on Antimicrobial Packaging from Biodegradable Polymer Composites

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The development of antimicrobial packaging has been growing rapidly due to an increase in awareness and demands for sustainable active packaging that could preserve the quality and prolong the shelf life of foods and products. The addition of highly efficient antibacterial nanoparticles, antifungals, and antioxidants to biodegradable and environmentally friendly green polymers has become a significant advancement trend for the packaging evolution. Impregnation of antimicrobial agents into the packaging film is essential for impeding or destroying the pathogenic microorganisms causing food illness and deterioration. Higher safety and quality as well as an extended shelf life of sustainable active packaging desired by the industry are further enhanced by applying the different types of antimicrobial packaging systems. Antimicrobial packaging not only can offer a wide range of advantages, but also preserves the environment through usage of renewable and biodegradable polymers instead of common synthetic polymers, thus reducing plastic pollution generated by humankind. This review intended to provide a summary of current trends and applications of antimicrobial, biodegradable films in the packaging industry as well as the innovation of nanotechnology to increase efficiency of novel, bio-based packaging systems.
