The Impact

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the mechanical properties of kevlar fiber and jute fiber reinforcement. Nowadays the composite materials are widely used materials. Having wide range of applications due to its light weight, high strength and low cost. These composite materials are now being explored in applications of aerospace and automotive industries. In the present work, the composite material is prepared with intermediate aramid fabric layer (Kevlar) which is high strength fiber and it is combined with jute fabric reinforced epoxy composite to increase the strength of kevlar. This composite material is tested for mechanical properties like flexural, tensile & impact strength are calculated with UTM (universal testing machine) for flexural, tensile tests and impact testing is done with impact testing machine. Through this test results the impact strength of the composite material is calculated. The energy dissipation by impact test of jute and kevlar fabric composite and strength of fibers will be analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). Thermo gravity analysis (TGA) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) is carried out. Through these test results it can conclude that the jute can be combined with the kevlar where the impact is primary considerations like bulletproof vests, automobile bodies, tyres etc. The usage of jute in all kevlar applications will increase the strength of kevlar by reducing the usage of Kevlar and cost will be minimized.

This work wants to give an overview on information gathered at the University of Naples Federico II in the last ten years by monitoring the impact tests of composite materials with infrared thermography. Many tests have been carried out involving several different types of composites and different infrared cameras. The obtained results show that IRT can be advantageously used to both validate previously obtained data and to get new data that can be exploited for understanding more on the impact damaging of composite materials. This bears witness for the advantages of having an infrared imaging device within the testing instrumentation.
