Mechanical Properties of Longitudinal Basalt/Woven-Glass-Fiber-reinforced Unsaturated Polyester-Resin Hybrid Composites

Abstract: This work represents a study to investigate the mechanical properties of longitudinal basalt/woven-glass-fiber-reinforced unsaturated polyester-resin hybrid composites. The hybridization of basalt and glass fiber enhanced the mechanical properties of hybrid composites. The unsaturated polyester resin (UP), basalt (B) and glass fibers (GF) were fabricated using the hand lay-up method in six formulations (UP, GF, B7.5/G22.5, B15/G15, B22.5/G7.5 and B) to produce the composites, respectively. This study showed th… Show more

“…Sandwich structure is known as a core attached to two identifiable stiff and strong skins; the core distributes the load from one skin to another. While the skins contribute to the bending and turgidity, the adhesive that conveys the shear and axial loads to the core material is used as a bonding agent [ 1 , 2 ]. The skin (or sometimes called a face sheet), and which in rare cases weighs only a few millimeters, is composed of light alloys.…”

“…Composites are materials that consist of two or more physical and chemical distinct phases, separated by an interface [ 1 , 2 ]. Such different phases are combined in order to yield a composites with stronger structural or functional properties that the individual components [ 3 ]. Composite materials benefit over non-composite materials for possessing low weight, corrosion resistance, high fatigue power, and quick installation [ 4 , 5 ].…”

“…FRPC is known for certain characteristics such as high specific strength and toughness, high resistance to fractures, good abrasive strength, great impact resistance, excellent corrosion resistance, and being relatively cheap [ 16 ]. Glass, carbon, basalt, Kevlar, and boron fibres are used for reinforcement in FRPC and are widely recognised as structural and non-structural applications materials [ 3 , 17 ]. However, their non-biodegradability could contribute to serious environmental problems.…”

“…Petroleum-based synthesis polymers are non-degradable, with production, recycling, and disposal releasing toxic emissions into the environment [ 1 ]. Cellulose offers excellent properties to minimize this damage by utilization as a filler in the manufacturing of either a synthesis matrix or a natural starch matrix.…”
