Abstract

Single fiber polymer composites containing either natural or artificial fibers may not deliver the desired characteristics. The current study used the hand-layup technique to make a hybrid composite by incorporating the natural fiber, Cordia-dichotoma (CD) and artificial fiber, carbon fibers (CF) in a polyester matrix and compressing the mixture for the desired size. The current study investigates the influence of carbon fiber loading (0, 5, 10, and 15 wt%) on the mechanical, structural, and crystalline properties of CD/polyester composites keeping the total fiber loading at 20 wt%. Mechanical properties are investigated with a universal testing machine, and impact strength using Izod impact apparatus. Better mechanical properties (tensile strength-457.38 MPa; flexural strength-290.09 MPa and impact strength-346.46 J/m) were obtained for the pure carbon fiber composite arranged in four layers (CF/CF/CF/CF), followed by hybrid composite (CF/CD/CD/CF) (tensile strength-319.24 MPa; flexural strength-253.03 MPa and impact strength-291.34 J/m) whereas pure CD fiber (CD/CD/CD/CD) composite yielded the lowest values (tensile strength-117.96 MPa; flexural strength-164.99 MPa and impact strength-118.11 J/m). Composites undergo hybridization, which improves their mechanical properties, lowers their cost, and makes them more environmentally friendly. The characteristics of the specimens were examined using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray Diffraction Analysis (XRD), Atomic Force Microscope (AFM), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). According to findings, crystallinity index is increased from 77.94% for CD/CD/CD/CD composite and increased to 78.21% for CF/CD/CD/CF composite. Highest crystallinity index of 82.46% was obtained for CF/CF/CF/CF composite. These hybrid composites may be used for applications involving medium loads.

通过碳纤维与堇菜/聚酯复合材料的杂化提高机械和结构特性
含有天然纤维或人造纤维的单纤维聚合物复合材料可能无法提供所需的特性。目前的研究采用手糊技术,在聚酯基体中加入天然纤维 Cordia-dichotoma (CD) 和人造纤维碳纤维 (CF),并将混合物压缩至所需尺寸,从而制成混合复合材料。目前的研究调查了碳纤维负载量(0、5、10 和 15 wt%)对 CD/聚酯复合材料的机械、结构和结晶特性的影响,纤维总负载量保持在 20 wt%。使用万能试验机对机械性能进行了研究,使用伊佐德冲击仪对冲击强度进行了研究。四层排列的纯碳纤维复合材料(CF/CF/CF/CF)获得了更好的机械性能(拉伸强度-457.38 兆帕;弯曲强度-290.09 兆帕和冲击强度-346.46 焦耳/米),其次是混合复合材料(CF/CD/CD/CF)(拉伸强度-319.24 兆帕;弯曲强度-253.03 兆帕;冲击强度-291.34 焦耳/米),而纯 CD 纤维(CD/CD/CD/CD)复合材料的数值最低(拉伸强度-117.96 兆帕;弯曲强度-164.99 兆帕;冲击强度-118.11 焦耳/米)。复合材料经过杂化处理后,机械性能得到改善,成本降低,而且更加环保。使用傅立叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)、X 射线衍射分析(XRD)、原子力显微镜(AFM)和扫描电子显微镜(SEM)检测了试样的特性。研究结果表明,结晶度指数从 CD/CD/CD/CD 复合材料的 77.94% 增加到 CF/CD/CD/CF 复合材料的 78.21%。CF/CF/CF/CF 复合材料的结晶度指数最高,为 82.46%。这些混合复合材料可用于中等载荷的应用。
