With the increased use of fibre reinforced composites (FRP), the design of new generation of composite structures with high stiffness and a ductile material behaviour is required to cope with complex load scenarios and high damage tolerances. This can be achieved, in particular, by a combination of conventional fibre-reinforced composites (FRP), which possess high stiffness and strength with metallic materials characterized by their high ductility and associated higher energy absorption capacity. Currently, there are no solutions for hybridisation of high performance filament yarns, metal filament yarns and thermoplastic filament yarns on micro level. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to develop a fibre hybrid composite based on hybrid yarn consisting of glass, steel and polypropylene filament yarns and to compare its tensile and impact properties with those of the composite reinforced only with glass filament yarn. The tensile and impact properties of the unidirectional hybrid composites produced from the developed multi-material hybrid yarn consisting of steel, glass and polypropylene filament yarns are compared with those of a non-hybrid composite reinforced exclusively with glass filament yarn. The results show that by hybridising with steel fibres a characteristic post-failure behaviour can be achieved, so that the developed multi-material hybrid yarns have a high potential for use in composites with high crash and impact performance requirements, where safety demands are essential.

The durability of fibers in a cement matrix is defined by their resistance to an alkaline environment. To determine the durability properties of waste fibers in cement composites, the fibers are subjected to various tests to determine their chemical stability, as well as changes in geometric and mechanical properties after exposure to an alkaline environment. The paper presents a systematic review of the literature in the field of durability of glass, basalt, carbon and recycled tire polymer fibers. An overview of the most commonly used alkaline solutions, test conditions, and test duration is provided, and corrosion mechanisms for each fiber type are defined from the available literature. Based on the research conducted, it was concluded that there is a lack of standardized tests to define the resistance of fibers in an alkaline environment, but also based on tests to predict the service life of cement composites.
