“…Although there has been significant research on using a single type of particles, the combined or synergistic effects of two or more types of nanoparticles have attracted the attention of researchers [ [32] , [33] , [34] ]. This is due to their potential to further enhance the mechanical properties of fiber reinforced polymers (FRPs) [ [35] , [36] , [37] , [38] ]. Mahdi et al [ 39 ] examined the impact of adding nano clay and MWCNTs individually, as well as a combination of the two, on the impact performance of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) composites at three distinct impact energy levels.…”

“…This research aims to comprehensively investigate the addition of different nanoparticles to improve the performance of GFRP against LVI. Four types of nanoparticles were selected, namely MWCNTs, nanoclay, copper oxide nanoparticles, and titanium oxide nanoparticles, with their weight percentages determined based on previous research [ 26 , 36 , 42 , 43 ] to prevent agglomeration and minimize any negative effects on mechanical properties. Synergistic effects were observed by combining nanoparticles with suitable strategies to prevent agglomeration, enabling the use of higher weight percentages without compromising mechanical properties [ 34 ].…”

“…Moreover, Goodarz et al. (Barbaz-Isfahani et al., 2022; Goodarz et al., 2017, 2018) discussed the effect of the presence of nano-interleaves on the force, displacement, absorbed energy, and stiffness of aramid fiber/epoxy composites. Based on group theory, a set of 3D woven fabrics were deduced, and corresponding processing technologies were verified (Wei and Wensuo, 2005).…”
Three-dimensional bidirectional angle-interlock woven (3DBAW) composites exhibit the orthogonal high modulus, which has the potential to be used in load-bearing components. 3DBAW preforms prepared using the certain and uncertain cross-sectional yarns exhibit various structural characteristics, and the mechanical properties of composites show the high variation. To investigate the effect of fabric structural stability on the elastic properties of 3DBAW composites and broaden its application, contrast analysis of quasi-static tensile properties of composite specimens was proposed, and the failure mechanism was analysed. The results showed that the high tensile initial elastic modulus of 3DBAW composites was attributed to the low curvature of load-bearing yarns. For composites with stable fabrics, the tensile process was smooth and steady owing to the uniform fiber spacing, and the tensile elastic modulus and strength show the smaller coefficient of variation. The tensile crack surfaces of composites with stable structural fabrics were regular, and making the full use of the load-bearing yarns. 3DBAW preforms with stable structure can effectively reduce the fluctuation of changes at the initial stage of loading, and the translaminar fracture and adhesive matrix failure are the main failure modes without the obvious interlaminar fracture. The results provided the support for the application of 3DBAW composite in load-bearing components.
“…MWCNT addition improved GFRP mechanical characteristics considerably. 44 It has been noticed that the dispersion of MWCNTs with thermoplastic materials only occurs uniformly in some cases. The researchers demonstrated a single extrusion procedure to produce PNCs.…”
Dispersion of carbon nanotubes in a thermoplastic polymer matrix is a big challenge in the research community. In the present study, multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were dispersed in acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) polymer by a twin screw extruder to improve mechanical and thermal properties. The desired ratio of MWCNT in ABS (1, 2, and 3 wt.%) were dispersed through single and double extrusion processes by a twin screw extruder. The test specimens of produced composites and pure ABS materials were prepared by micro-injection molding. The nanocomposites’ mechanical and thermal properties were investigated and compared with pure ABS. It has been found that the tensile strength has increased significantly for single-extruded and double-extruded composites. A comparative study of MWCNTs reinforced ABS nanocomposites and pure ABS was carried out using thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier's transform infrared, X-ray diffraction, and Scanning electron microscopy. It was found that the microhardness has also increased for single- and double-extruded nanocomposites in comparison to pure ABS.
