Abstract:Fibre metal laminates are advanced sandwich materials that offer various outstanding properties over conventional metallic alloys and composites. This research study intends to investigate the effects of weaving architectures and stacking configurations on the mechanical properties of fibre metal laminates based on kenaf/pineapple leaf fibre. Fibre metal laminates were fabricated through the hot moulding compression technique. Mechanical tests were performed on the kenaf/pineapple leaf fibre-based fibre metal … Show more

Woven mat jute fiber Aluminum and copper Epoxy Compression molding [185] Plain woven kenaf and woven E-glass Annealed aluminum PP Hot pressing [186] Plain and twill woven kenaf and PALF Aluminum PP Hot molding compression [187] Vieira et al [182] performed the investigation on composites of sisal fiber-reinforced aluminum laminates (SiRALs) and sisal fiber-reinforced composites (SFRC) on their physical and mechanical properties. Characterizations of the composites showed remarkable enhancements of the tensile, flexural, and impact properties (Figure 11) in SiRAL due to presence of aluminum layers in the composite system.…”

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 compositesâ mechanical and structural failure as well as overview the details and developments that have been achieved with the composites.

“…The parabolic curves in Figure 14(a) indicate that no perforation occurred in any of the samples due to quasi-isotropic orientation in P3SNW composites. But in case of 0°/90° WRM composites, the velocity versus deformation curves revealed that the impactor had pierced without resistance 12,34 as shown in Figure 14(b). From impact test results it is noticed that, under same impact velocity, force, drop height and impactor, energy absorption of composites is varied with fibre orientation which attributed to better impact resistance of material behaviour under sudden impact, besides higher fibre content in SNW composite.Figure 14.Velocity versus deformation of (a) P3SNW and (b) 0°/90° WRM composites.…”
Fibre architecture of glass fibre (GF) reinforced polymer composites has a major impact on the mechanical properties for structural applications. In this study, a novel continuous glass fibre non-woven GF mat based on Spirograph art pattern is laid using a customized mechanical system. Spirograph-based continuous glass fibre non-woven (SNW) mat of different patterns was prepared and GF laminate epoxy composites were fabricated with the aim of achieving quasi-isotropic mechanical properties. The samples were cut to dimensions of test specimens from various identical locations symmetrically from a circular-shaped SNW composite laminates which were subjected to flexural, impact, shear and modified compression with anti-buckling tests. One particular SNW pattern composite laminate exhibited 40.82% better impact and 49.01% better shear resistance than commercial 0°/90° woven roving mat composite. The developed SNW laminate composite had quasi-isotropic fibre orientation and better mechanical properties without any stitching and interlacing as in case of woven fibre laminate composite.
“…Table 1 lists the metallic fillers used in FR applications. In some polymer composites, the metal and natural fibers such as kenaf [ 65 ], flax [ 66 ], and jute [ 67 ] have been added together with the polymeric resin to enhance the structural and thermal stability. Krishnasamy et al [ 65 ] reported that the addition of aluminum and copper in jute epoxy hybrid composite resulted in the excellent thermal stability, as well as improved in their mechanical strength such as tensile and flexural performance.…”

Polymer composites filled with metal derivatives have been widely used in recent years, particularly as flame retardants, due to their superior characteristics, including high thermal behavior, low environmental degradation, and good fire resistance. The hybridization of metal and polymer composites produces various favorable properties, making them ideal materials for various advanced applications. The fire resistance performance of polymer composites can be enhanced by increasing the combustion capability of composite materials through the inclusion of metallic fireproof materials to protect the composites. The final properties of the metal-filled thermoplastic composites depend on several factors, including pore shape and distribution and morphology of metal particles. For example, fire safety equipment uses polyester thermoplastic and antimony sources with halogenated additives. The use of metals as additives in composites has captured the attention of researchers worldwide due to safety concern in consideration of peopleâs life and public properties. This review establishes the state-of-art flame resistance properties of metals/polymer composites for numerous industrial applications.
