“…The polymer matrix hybrid composites with several advantages are already studied and summarized by several authors in the literature [5][6][7]. It is generally accepted that the properties of hybrid composites are controlled by factors such as nature of matrix; nature, length and relative composition of the reinforcements; fiber-matrix interface; and hybrid design, etc.…”

In this study, the impact and flexural properties of woven basalt fiber/phenolic (BFP), woven carbon fiber/ phenolic (CFP) and woven basalt/woven carbon hybrid phenolic (BCFP) composites are investigated. The hybridization effect of woven basalt and woven carbon fibers on the impact energy absorption and flexural properties is investigated for various weight ratios of basalt/ carbon hybrid fibers such as 1:0, 0.83:0.17, 0.68:0.32, 0.61:0.39, 0.34:0.66 and 0:1. It is found that the impact properties of the composites are strongly improved when the basalt fiber increased. Impact energy absorption of CFP composite showed a regular trend of increase with increasing weight ratio of basalt fiber in hybrid fiber composite. The lowest impact energy absorption values are found for the composites with weight ratio 0:1 (CFP), with average of 70 kJ/m 2 . Corresponding values for energy absorptions are obtained for 0.83:0.17, 0.68:0.32, 0.61:0.39, 0.34:0.66 basalt/carbon weight ratio in hybrid composites. The impact energy absorption of hybrid composites (BCFP) shows the highest value with an average of 219 kJ/m 2 , when the weight ratio of 0.83:0.17 is used. Finally, the impact energy absorption of BFP composites with the weight ratio of 1:0 shows the highest value of 268 kJ/m 2 . The experimental evidence shows that the hybrid composites based on combinations of stiff carbon fibers and tough basalt fibers have good flexural properties and therefore, they can be used as promising materials in a number of engineering sectors such as the protective structures.

“…Apparently, the properties of organoclay reinforced nanocomposites can be enhanced by hybridizing with two or more different additives. Following the traditional approach as used in toughening of glass fibre reinforced polymer composites by addition of rubber particles [9][10][11][12][13], recent interest has also been focused on the application of a third elastomer component to prepare organoclay reinforced nanocomposites and with much success.…”

PVC/Blendex/Nano-CaCO 3 composites were prepared by melt-blending method. The Blendex (BLENDEX ® 338) (GE Specialty Chemicals Co., Ltd., Shanghai, China) was an acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer with high butadiene content. The fracture behavior of PVC/Blendex/nano-CaCO 3 composites was studied using a modified essential work of fracture model, U/A ϭ u 0 ϩ u d l, where u 0 is the limiting specific fracture energy and u d is the dissipative energy density. The u 0 of PVC/Blendex blend could be greatly increased by the addition of nano-CaCO 3 , while the u d was decreased. Nano-CaCO 3 with particle size of 38 nm increased the u 0 of PVC/Blendex blend more effectively than that with particle size of 64 nm, when nanoCaCO 3 content was below 10 phr. Both the u 0 and u d of PVC/Blendex/nano-CaCO 3 composites were not much affected by increasing specimen thickness from 3 mm to 5 mm, while the two fracture parameters were increased with increasing loading rate from 2 mm/min to 10 mm/min, and u d was found to be more sensitive to the loading rate than u 0 .
