“…They observed that the jute fiber/epoxy specimen has the highest damaged area compared to glass fiber/epoxy and carbon fiber/epoxy specimens. The effect of stacking sequence on the low‐velocity impact and compression after impact behavior of glass and jute fiber reinforced hybrid composites was investigated by Pandian et al, 45 The top and bottom 3 layers of jute fiber and a middle double layer of glass fiber exhibited better results in terms of energy absorption, lower damage, and higher compression strength.…”

In this study, the low‐velocity impact behavior of polymer composites produced separately by reinforcing with natural fiber fabrics such as linen, hemp, jute, and bamboo was investigated for three different thicknesses (2.5 ± 0.1, 5 ± 0.1, and 7.5 ± 0.1 mm) by vacuum infusion method. Low‐speed impact tests were performed at three different energy levels of 20, 35, and 50 J by striking the geometric center of the composite samples with a hemispherical impactor. The impact strengths of the composites were evaluated by comparing the contact force‐displacement, contact force‐time graphs, and impacted sample images. The types of damage occurring in each experimental sample were evaluated. Increasing the thickness had a positive effect on the impact strength of the composites. When the thickness of the composite plates increases, the peak contact force increases, the displacement decreases and capacity to carry impact loads increases due to the increased stiffness of the composites. However, except for the damaged 5 ± 0.1 mm thick bamboo and jute samples, the energy absorption ability of the samples generally increases with the increase of impact energy. Bamboo, jute, and hemp reinforced samples with a thickness of 2.5 ± 0.1 mm were completely perforated under 20 J impact energy. Also, it was determined that linen reinforced composites have the best impact resistance among natural fabric reinforced composites.Highlights Low‐velocity impact behavior of natural fiber fabric reinforced PMCs was studied. The impact strength of PMCs increased as the thickness increased. Linen reinforced composites had the best impact resistance. The main damage modes are matrix cracking and delamination at low‐impact energies. As the impact energy increases, perforation and fiber breakage or separations are observed.

“…26 These days, researchers are more focused on developing hybrid composites as these composites can practically overcome the drawbacks of composites containing only one type of fiber reinforcement. 27,28 For instance, Pndian et al 29 investigated the effect of stacking sequence in polyester reinforced with glass and jute fiber in LVI and CAI tests. According to the obtained results, using multiple reinforcements has played a vital role in increasing the compressive strength after the impact, so the residual compressive strength after the impact of 15 J in the hybrid composite increased by 32.56%.…”

Polymer matrix composites are vulnerable to low-velocity impact, although they have found many applications in high-tech industries. The main objective of this study is to improve compression after impact strength of the carbon/epoxy composites using nanoclay particles. All test samples were fabricated using a vacuum infusion process. The solution blending methodology was applied for better dispersion of the nanoparticles in the resin. The low-velocity impact response of the composite and nanocomposite laminates was investigated at various energy levels of 10, 15, and 20 J. To quantify the impact effect, the residual strength of the impacted specimens was experimentally measured under the compression test. In addition, the effect of nanoclay incorporation through the solution blending methodology on damage mechanisms was determined by the radiographic analyses and optical microscope method. The findings of this research showed a rise, up to 25.15% in the residual compressive strength, and a 7-fold increase in local buckling threshold stress of the carbon/epoxy/nanoclay specimens.

Today, various fiber reinforcements are used in automotive, aerospace and defense industries. Many of these fibers are synthetic structures, which can cause problems such as environmental pollution and high manufacturing costs. Researchers have turned to the use of more environmental‐friendly and cost‐effective natural materials to minimize these problems. In this study energy absorption properties of the fiber laminate‐hybrid epoxy composites were investigated with dynamic loadings. Fiber type and hybridization effects were investigated under drop weight impact tests with 10, 20, 30 and 50 Joule impact energies. Besides, mechanical characteristics were examined via quasi‐static bending tests. In this context, double and triple fiber reinforced natural/synthetic and synthetic/synthetic hybrid composites were manufactured as sandwich type. Furthermore, it is also aimed an evaluation of using natural fibers in ballistic activities with this study. Fiber materials consist of woven type carbon, aramid and jute fibers. Hybrid composites were manufactured with the aim of providing mechanical optimization between the fibers and enabling the fiber layers to absorb more impact energy. In addition, performance evaluation was made by comparing natural/synthetic reinforced hybrid composites with full synthetic hybrid composites. The results show that significant improvements were achieved in bending and impact resistance of the composites by using jute fibers to the inner layers.Highlights Drop weight impact tests were carried out to determine the energy absorption behavior of the hybrid composites. Fiber type is effective in the mechanical behavior of the composite materials. Natural hybrid composites show well enough mechanical properties as well as low cost.
