Tensile strength of notched woven fabric hybrid glass, carbon/epoxy composite laminates

Abstract: This study investigates the effect of hybridization on tensile strength of woven fabric glass/epoxy composite laminates with two different notch sizes of 5 mm and 10 mm. Tensile tests are performed on notched [0 /90 ] 3s specimens of woven fabric C-glass/ epoxy composite laminates and their hybrid reinforced with woven fabric 3K-carbon layers in order to measure tensile strength and characterize damage mechanisms. The results suggest that hybridization has a considerable effect on the improvement of the tensil… Show more

“…GCG composites exhibited relatively less stiffness than the corresponding CCC and CGC composites due to the presence of higher glass fabric content, Figure 7(c). Strain to failure was similar to the CGC specimens but considerably less as compared to the GGG composite which is evident due to the presence of higher percentage of carbon fiber reinforcements as explained in similar study by Haery et al [29]. GCG composites also showed lesser ultimate tensile strength than CCC and CGC composites which can be dedicated to the presence of higher glass fabric content replacing carbon fiber.…”

“…For example, while void content less than 1% is required for aerospace applications, 5% is acceptable for other applications such as automotive and marine [31]. It has also been found out in the literature that mostly fibers or unidirectional structures are used as the reinforcement instead of biaxial woven structures; on the other hand, biaxial woven fabric structure is preferred in this study because they offer better impact resistance, enhanced toughness, and dimensional stability as compared to unidirectional-reinforced composites [32]. Second, in the literature, jute fabric-reinforced composites are mostly hybridized with E-glass fabrics by using epoxy resin as the matrix; however, in this study, jute fabric-reinforced composites are hybridized with both E-glass and carbon fabrics by using polyester as the matrix material for manufacturing more economical and functional structures.…”

“…Due to high price of carbon fiber, hybrid composites composed of two or more fiber materials have been developed for cost reduction [ 1 ]. Hybrid composites not only embody the advantages of a single fiber, but can achieve complementary advantages of two materials; excellent physical and mechanical properties make hybrid composites widely applicable in many fields [ 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 ]. Currently, extensive work centers on the mechanical properties of hybrid composites [ 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 ].…”
