Development and Properties of Hybrid Composites

The Flexural and tensile properties and Scanning electron Microscope analysis of Aramide/Onion/Glass fibers Reinforced Epoxy Reinforced composites are studied. The effect of the Aramide/Onion/Glass fibers on these properties was also studied. These properties found to be higher when glass fibers were used in the reinforced composites. The elimination of amorphous hemi-cellulose leading to higher crystallinity of the Aramide/ Onion/Glass fibers may be responsible for these observations. The author investigated the interfacial bonding between Aramide/Onion/Glass reinforced epoxy composites. Bonding between Aramide/Onion/Glass composites was also studied.
