“…Composites with braids showed lower flexural strength compared to their woven counterpart. Flexural strength and modulus reduces with increasing braid angle; this is in agreement with earlier work [11]. In their study on the stiffness characteristics of 31 0 , 45 0 and 65 0 braided composite tubes, Potluri et al [16] showed that the 45 0 braids have lower bending stiffness values in comparison to 31 0 braids; however they found that 65 0 braids had the highest bending stiffness.…”

The focus of this paper is on the manufacture of textile composite beams and on the determination of their mechanical properties. This includes investigating the effects of fibre orientation on the mechanical properties of braided and woven textile composites. Composites were manufactured from nominally identical constituents and identical consolidation processes, leaving as the only variables, variations caused by the different fibre architecture of the preform. The repeatability and, hence, reliability of this approach is demonstrated. Results obtained show that fibre architecture affects composite strength and extensibility. Composites with woven preforms are practically linear up to catastrophic failure while composites with braided preforms exhibit non-linearity prior to failure. Also the mechanical properties of the textile composite beams were determined. Results show that by tailoring the braid angle and pick density of braided and woven composite performs, the mechanical properties of the composite beams can be controlled to suit end-use requirement.

An experimental study has been carried out to investigate the mechanical properties of glass-fiber reinforced epoxy composite filled with different proportions of Al2O3 particles. As a comparison, the mechanical properties of unfilled glass-fiber reinforced epoxy composite were also evaluated under identical test conditions. The results showed that while ultimate tensile strength and shear strength of the composites decreased with increasing Al2O3 particles content, flexural strength increased with the Al2O3 particles content of up to 10% beyond which it decreased. Compared with the flexural properties of the unfilled glass-fiber reinforced epoxy composite, with the addition of 10 wt% of Al2O3 particle in the matrix, flexural strength, and flexural modulus were increased by 33 and 78%, respectively.

“…Warps yarns usually have relatively high twist unlike weft yarns, where the twist was usually kept as low as possible. In previous research [37] investigated the influence of woven structure on mechanical properties. In this research, mechanical strength and modulus in warp direction are higher than those in weft direction.…”

Natural fibres have the potential aspect to replace glass fibre reinforced composites. One of these fibers is kenaf. It is also one of the selected natural fibres that have bio resource profit regarding on their capability to absorb energy absorption especially. In order to prove the application of this fiber for the load-bearing application, the fiber in the form of yarn is weaved into fiber mat and reinforced with the plastic resin. This study focused on the twill yarn kenaf woven composite structure. Composites were prepared using the hand lay-up method with different type of orientation where the orientation is designed using Taguchi method. The hardened composites were cured for 24 hours in an ambient temperature before it was shaped according to ASTM D3039. The samples were then stressed uni-axially to obtain the stress-strain curves. The result shows the fiber orientations were significant factor in determining the performance of tensile strength. In this work, fiber mats are then optimized and the results showed that the values of tensile and modulus strength were 55.738 MPa and 5761.704 Joule, which is increased 3.77% and 4.23% for tensile strength and Young modulus, respectively. By comparing fracture mechanism before and after optimizations, there was clear decreasing fracture surface. It indicated that, the mechanical behavior performances of the twill woven kenaf reinforced composites can be effectively improved by this method.
