“…The work on corn stalk/sisal fiber hybrid composites was carried out and found that hybridization has improve the mechanical behavior of the composites. [ 118 ] The hybrid sisal/OPEBF/rubber composites produced and their mechanical properties were studied. [ 119 ] The results showed that highly concentrated enriched fibers were registered improved modulus and decreased tensile and shear strengths.…”

In the past two decades (2001)(2002)(2003)(2004)(2005)(2006)(2007)(2008)(2009)(2010)(2011)(2012)(2013)(2014)(2015)(2016)(2017)(2018)(2019)(2020), researchers have been attracted toward hybrid composite materials reinforced with synthetic and natural fibers. Biodegradability and harmlessness to the environment are the major attributes of natural fibers, such qualities support these fibers to reinforce into composites. At the same time, higher moisture absorption and poor compatibility characteristics of natural fibers have forced to hybridize with other synthetic/natural fibers. Several researchers have already done the hybridization of natural fibers with synthetic/natural fibers to overcome the limitations of natural fibers. Due to this reason, we perform a literature review on the influence of hybridization on the properties of composites reinforced with synthetic and natural fibers. This review is made on resulting properties of hybrid composites such as mechanical, thermal, water absorption, tribological behavior, morphological characteristics, and other properties from the year 2001 to 2020.

“…Giridharan [26] evaluated hybrid ramie/glass fiber (20%/80% and 30%/70%), epoxy composites by tensile, flexural and impact tests and found that the hybrid composites (30%/70%) exhibited better mechanical properties than non-hybrid composites. Chen et al [27] examined the mechanical and water absorption behaviors of corn stalk/sisal fiber hybrid composites. It was showed that the hybridization with sisal fiber significantly enhanced the mechanical properties (flexural strength increased by 20% and tensile strength by 49.5%) but had little effect on water absorption.…”

Mechanical and Thermal Characterization of Natural Intralaminar Hybrid Composites Based on Sisal

The main objective of this work was to investigate the effect of hybridization on the mechanical and thermal properties of intralaminar natural fiber-reinforced hybrid composites based on sisal. Ramie, sisal and curauá fibers were selected as natural fiber reinforcements for the epoxy matrix based composites, which were produced by the hand lay-up technique. Tensile, flexural and impact tests were carried out according to American society for testing and materials (ASTM) standards to characterize the hybrid composites, while differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were used to evaluate the thermal properties. It was found that the mechanical properties are improved by hybridization of sisal based composites. The thermal analysis showed that the hybridization did not significantly affect the thermal stability of the composites. A scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to examine the fracture surface of the tested specimens. The SEM images showed a brittle fracture of the matrix and fiber breakage near the matrix.

“…Plant fiber reinforced polymer composites (PFRPs) are biomaterials prepared by using plant fibers as reinforcement material and thermoplastics as matrix. Such composites have been widely applied in structural and construction areas, such as decking and fencing (Ku et al 2011;Leu et al 2012;Chen et al 2018). Nevertheless, the hydrophilic character of plant fibers has caused some cases of PFRPs failures in outdoor service, especially in high humidity environments.…”

To investigate the effect of seawater degradation on the mechanical, wear, and thermal properties of plant fiber-reinforced polymer composites, the seawater immersion test was performed on four types of straw fiber (wheat straw (WS), rice straw (RS), corn straw (CS), and sorghum straw (SS))-reinforced polyvinyl chloride (PVC) composites. The results revealed that seawater immersion would result in poor mechanical, wear, and thermal properties, and lower two-phase bonding quality, thermal mass loss, and thermal residual mass, as well as more serious abrasive wear. The SS/PVC and CS/PVC composites had the highest and lowest seawater degradation resistance, respectively. After 12 d seawater immersion, the tensile strength of the SS/PVC and CS/PVC composites decreased from 17.3 to 9.7 MPa and from 12.3 to 7.2 MPa, respectively; and the flexural strength of the SS/PVC and CS/PVC composites decreased from 34.2 to 20.1 MPa and from 28.0 to 15.3 MPa, respectively. However, the friction coefficient of the SS/PVC and CS/PVC composites increased from 0.21 to 0.27 and from 0.24 to 0.30, respectively; and the specific wear rate of the SS/PVC and CS/PVC composites increased from 0.73 × 10-5 mm3/N·m to 21.7 × 10-5 mm3/N·m and from 1.77 × 10-5 to 28.3 × 10-5 mm3/N·m.
