Hybrid composites are made by combining natural and synthetic fibers with an effective matrix, which usually means they’ve received additional strengthening, such as epoxy, to create the additional material properties you can’t obtain on their own. To attain the desirable tensile modulus, compressive modulus, and so on, a fiber composite needs to be added to the FRP (Fiber Reinforced Polymer). Polymer matrix composites are light and cost-effective to manufacture, but they still friendly to the environment and have viable applications, which is why they are often used in various commercial applications. Unidirectional fibers and bidirectionally reinforced with epoxy (SikaDur is a composite medium) carbon fibers are two-way reinforced with unidirectional (use unidirectional) Before we developed test procedures for preparing the test specimens, the testing lab implemented the layup method according to ASTM standards. Ten separate stacking sequences were tested and four different intensity sequences were used in testing the compressive structures according to ASTM D15. The results of the study indicate that hybridization helps natural fiber-reinforced polymer composites to increase their mechanical properties We would use natural fibers rather than synthetic ones since the natural ones make comparable strength when hybridized with synthetic ones.

In the recent years, due to environmental awareness of general public, researchers and scientists directed towards the use of natural fibers reinforced composites as environmentally friendly. Now a days, many scientists, researchers and engineers have explored the extraction, properties and utilization of natural fibers as economically and effectively as possible to produce good quality natural fiber reinforced polymer matrix composites. Many scientists and researchers proved that increase in fiber loading resulted in increased mechanical properties of the composite material. This will be the basis to develop and to evaluate properties of natural fiber reinforced polymer matrix composites. In this research, Kenaf long fiber reinforced epoxy matrix composites were successfully fabricated by simple and cost effective hand layup technique and their mechanical properties such as tensile strength, bending strength, impact strength, hardness with different fiber loading were successfully investigated. Water absorption capacity was also reported. The fibers are treated with NaoH solution for surface modification and to improve mechanical properties. The specimens are prepared according to ASTM standard and experiments were carried out
