“…At the end force-displacement plots and part contours were viewed in visualization module after job completion. [12] also found similar results in their studies concluding that the effect of hybridization is useful for carbon/jute hybrid composites. Composites strength increases with increasing percentage of carbon reinforcement due to presence of covalent bond along longitudinal direction of carbon fiber whereas jute fiber has poor mechanical properties and can only be used in hybridization with synthetic fibers.…”

Jute based green composites are emerging materials due to their certain attractive properties like appropriate strength to weight ratio, high damping ratio, low price and corrosion resistance. Jute/carbon hybrid composite can replace carbon fiber reinforced composites without much loss in tensile strength. These hybrid composites are now being used in various automobile interior and exterior parts. In this study tensile behavior of carbon/jute reinforced epoxy hybrid textile composites, for different volume fractions of carbon and jute fibers, is studied experimentally and numerically. Tensile behavior of composite materials is always required for design and analysis of any structure. It is found that with increase in jute percentage tensile strength of hybrid composite decrease. Numerical results agrees well with experimental results and error increases with increase in jute percentage due to heterogeneous jute properties and waviness of fabrics. Fractographic study reveals that delamination phenomenon exists in between plies and jute fiber shows more pullout than carbon fiber. Scanning electron microscope analysis depicted that matrix fails in form of fragmentation while fibers show pullout during failure.

“…These factors include: the dispersion and distribution of reinforcements in the chosen polymer matrix, interfacial adhesion between polymer and reinforcements, large surface area, high aspect ratio of reinforcements, mechanical properties of reinforcements, effect of loading, surface modification, fiber dimension and orientation in the case of natural fibers. In many studies, mechanical properties are usually reported as a function of loading, size and fiber treatment [21,[91][92][93][94]. Numerous researches have been reported on the development of hybrid Table 5.…”

Natural fibers, as replacement of engineered fibers, have been one of the most researched topics over the past years. This is due to their inherent properties, such as biodegradability, renewability and their abundant availability when compared to synthetic fibers. Synthetic fibers derived from finite resources (fossil fuels) and are thus, affected mainly by volatility oil prices and their accumulation in the environment and/or landfill sites as main drawbacks their mechanical properties and thermal properties surpass that of natural fibers. A combination of these fibers/fillers, as reinforcement of various polymeric materials, offers new opportunities to produce multifunctional materials and structures for advanced applications. This article intends to cover recent developments from 2013-up to date on hybrid composites, based on natural fibers with other fillers. Hybrid composites preparation and characterization towards their applicability in advanced applications and the current challenges are also presented.

“…Hybridizing natural fibers with synthetic ones such as glass or carbon fibers is an efficient technique that is used for controlling the vibration damping and enhancing the mechanical and moisture absorption properties of partially natural hybrid composites [252]. The incorporation of natural fibers such as jute and flax fibers to carbon and glass fiber-based composites improves the flexural properties, ductility, and impact strength of the hybrid composites, while the carbon and glass fibers participate in enhancing the moisture absorption behavior, stiffness, strength, and thermal stability of the hybrid composites [253][254][255][256][257]. Glass fiber is considered an economically feasible fiber characterized with high tensile strength, low moisture absorption capability, and high dimensional stability.…”

Critical Review of the Parameters Affecting the Effectiveness of Moisture Absorption Treatments Used for Natural Composites

Natural composites can be fabricated through reinforcing either synthetic or bio-based polymers with hydrophilic natural fibers. Ultimate moisture absorption resistance at the fiber–matrix interface can be achieved when hydrophilic natural fibers are used to reinforce biopolymers due to the high degree of compatibility between them. However, the cost of biopolymers is several times higher than that of their synthetic counterparts, which hinders their dissemination in various industries. In order to produce economically feasible natural composites, synthetic resins are frequently reinforced with hydrophilic fibers, which increases the incompatibility issues such as the creation of voids and delamination at fiber–matrix interfaces. Therefore, applying chemical and/or physical treatments to eliminate the aforementioned drawbacks is of primary importance. However, it is demonstrated through this review study that these treatments do not guarantee a sufficient improvement of the moisture absorption properties of natural composites, and the moisture treatments should be applied under the consideration of the following parameters: (i) type of hosting matrix; (ii) type of natural fiber; (iii) loading of natural fiber; (iv) the hybridization of natural fibers with mineral/synthetic counterparts; (v) implantation of nanofillers. Complete discussion about each of these parameters is developed through this study.
