Post curing optimization for tensile strength of hybrid ramie-carbon fiber reinforced polymer
The optimization of post-curing processes is crucial for enhancing the performance of epoxy-based fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) by ensuring adequate cross-linking. This study focuses on optimizing the post-curing parameters for hybrid Ramie and Carbon fiber composites with the primary objective of improving tensile strength. Variations in post-curing temperature, post-curing time, and the number of synthetic fiber layers were systematically investigated across three levels using Taguchi design of experiments. The ultimate tensile stress was employed as the response parameter. Results indicate that post-curing temperature exerts a greater influence on tensile strength compared to post-curing time. A failure pattern of natural fiber followed by synthetic fibers was seen to happen progressively. A precise multivariable regression model was developed to predict the response for different combinations of post-curing parameters. Furthermore, employing particle swarm optimization revealed an optimal post-curing time of 12 h and an optimal temperature of 60°C. These findings contribute to the optimization of post-curing processes in hybrid fiber composites, thereby enhancing their mechanical properties.
