Effect of layering sequence on mechanical properties of woven kenaf/jute fabric hybrid laminated microwave-processed composites

Abstract: In this research work, multi-layered composites of pure and hybrid woven fibre mats were fabricated using microwave-assisted compression moulding process. The hybrid composite consisted of jute and kenaf fibre as reinforcement having weight fraction of 29 ± 1%, while high-density polyethylene acted as the matrix. The laminate of multi-layered composites was fabricated by stacking the kenaf and jute woven fibre mats with high-density polyethylene matrix, resulting in different hybrid composites, i.e. JJJ, KKK, … Show more

“…Moreover, despite the aerospace industry, the lightweight properties of the composites are required in the automotive industry to meet the fuel efficiency requirement [36]. However, most of the previous works on woven kenaf hybrid composites focused on investigating the mechanical performance of the hybrid composites [16,[37][38][39][40][41], and only a few [42][43][44] studied the flammability and thermal properties of the woven composites.…”

“…The hardness of the HVBMDL composite observed highest hardness when compared with other composites. This could be due to lignin acts as a good bonding cellulose which provides the stiffness to a fiber and enhanced interfacial bonding in the hybridation of fiber reinforced composites [34,35]. It was about 2 times more than that of VFMSL composites, 2.30 times more than that of BFMSL composites, 1.07 times more than that of VFMDL composites, and 1.25 times more than that of BFMDL composites.…”
