“…This increment is sharper than the fibre content increase seen in Figure 13. It is reported that in other glass fibre reinforced composites; there is an increment of the Young modulus when the interfacial adhesion is improved [44,45]. The flexural modulus behaviour of the composites manufactured with 20 and 30 wt.% prepreg fibre contents agree with the composite fibre content behaviour observed in Figure 12.…”

A new process for the impregnation, consolidation, and curing of glass-fibre-reinforced polyester composites was developed to reduce manufacturing costs and secure end properties that compete with other traditional materials. This new process, based on the ultraviolet (UV) curing of prepregs, could be a viable alternative to infusion and other processes. In this paper, we showed that glass fibre composites 3 mm thick could be easily formed using suitable photoinitiating systems. We achieved improved mechanical properties through the application of favourable parameters to traditional manufacturing processes such as hand lay-up and infusion. The prepreg polymerization was monitored by dielectric analysis (DEA), and we evaluated the relationship between the UV radiation exposure time and curing degree. Both the exposure time and compaction pressure affected the fibre content of composites and interlaminar shear strength. Experimental results showed that compaction pressures higher than 4 bar are necessary to increase the mechanical properties of the UV-cured composites. Finally, the properties of the composites manufactured by this new process were compared to the properties of composites manufactured using traditional processes such as hand lay-up and infusion.

“…The mechanical behaviours of fiber-reinforced composites are primarily dependent on their inherent abilities to enable stress transfer, which in turn depends on the fiber strength, matrix strength and the strength of interfacial adhesion between the fiber/matrix [16]. Glass fibers (GFs) have been employed in various forms such as longitudinal, woven mat, chopped fiber (distinct) and chopped mats to enhance the mechanical and tribological properties of the fiber reinforced composites.…”

“…Yet, thermoplastic matrices host aramid fibers with nearly 20% more efficiency. Owing to their higher ductility, they are more compatible to aramids [16,18]. Table 8 presents a comparative view of tensile properties of epoxy composites reinforced with different types of aramid fibers.…”

Fiber-reinforced composites are essentially axial particulates embedded in fitting matrices. The primary objective of fiber-reinforced composites it to obtain materials with high strength in conjunction with higher elastic modulus. The strength elevation is however affected with applied load transiting from matrix to fibers, interfacial bonding between fiber-matrix, their relative alignment and nature of fiber scheming the overall material behaviors. The alignment of fibers may however be continuous or random depending on the end applications. The choice of the fiber reinforcement and its fitting matrix also depends on application requirements. In recent years, the advent of composite technology has led to the development of different fiber reinforced composite systems via varying manufacturing methodologies to obtain advanced material behaviors. Herein, we present a comparative account on various kinds of synthetic fibers and their significance as potential reinforcements with special emphasis on carbon fibers.

“…Glass fibers are used as a reinforcing agent for many polymer products; to form a very strong and relatively lightweight fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite material called glass-reinforced plastic and most common types of used glass fibre is E-glass [29][30][31][32][33]. Many researchers explored many article regarding matrix comprised and properties of composites [34][35][36][37][38][39].…”

In this experiment, three types of fabric such as jute, E-glass and carbon Kevlar were selected to manufacture composites taking polypropylene (PP) as matrix material. The objective of this study is to compare the examined properties such as tensile modulus (TM), elongation at break percentage (EB %), E-Modulus (EM) of jute, E-glass and carbon Kevlar fabric reinforced polypropylene composite. The properties of manufactured composite were evaluated experimentally using computerized UTM machine according to ASTM standards. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used to identify the surface groups of the composites. Water absorption and fire retardant behavior of the composites were also performed. The results revealed that the tensile strength, E-Modulus and water absorption of carbon Kevlar composite were exhibited higher than the jute and E-glass fabric reinforced composites. Different scenario has observed for elongation percentage at break. The capacity of fire retardant was noticed higher in jute fabric composite than E-glass and carbon Kevlar.
