The limited shelf life of carbon prepreg waste (CPW) from component manufacturing restricts its use as a composite reinforcement fibre on its own. However, CPW can be recycled with glass fibre (GF) reinforcement to develop a unique remediate material. Therefore, this study fabricated (1) a glass fibre-carbon prepreg waste reinforced polymer hybrid composite (GF-CPW-PP), (2) a polypropylene composite (PP), (3) a carbon prepreg waste reinforced composite (CPW-PP), and (4) a glass fibre reinforced composite (GF-PP) and reported their degradation and residual tension properties after immersion in water. The polymer hybrid composites were fabricated via extrusion technique with minimum reinforce glass-carbon prepreg waste content of 10 wt%. The immersion test was conducted at room temperature using distilled water. Moisture content and diffusion coefficient (DC) were determined based on water adsorption values recorded at 24-h intervals over a one-week period. The results indicated that GF-PP reinforced composites retained the most moisture post-168 h of immersion. However, hardness and tensile strength were found to decrease with increased water adsorption. Tensile strength was found to be compromised since pores produced during hydrolysis reduced interfacial bonding between glass fibre and prepreg carbon reinforcements and the PP matrix.

ZA-27 hybrid metal matrix composites reinforced with lamb bone ash (LBA) and boron carbide (B4C) were fabricated by employing stir casting route. Single-reinforced composite with 5 wt.% of LBA and hybrid composites reinforced with LBA/B4C in the ratio of (3.75:1.25, 2.5:2.5, 1.25:3.75) were developed. Composites were processed as per ASTM standards and subjected to physical characterization (density and porosity), microstructural characterization, and mechanical characterization (hardness, compressive strength, tensile strength, and impact strength). Microstructural studies of ZA-27 composites using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) revealed the uniform dispersion of reinforcements. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) of the developed composites confirmed the existence of LBA and B4C particles in the matrix. The density of the composites declined, and porosity increased with the increment in B4C wt.% compared with base alloy. Mechanical properties like hardness, compressive strength, and tensile strength improved significantly in the case of hybrid composites than single-reinforced composite. Hardness, compressive strength and tensile strength of the hybrid composites increased to a maximum of 41.12%, 24.40%, 61.08% respectively compared to the base alloy, whereas single-reinforced composite showed maximum improvement of 19.26% (hardness), 11.16% (compressive strength), and 28.38% (tensile strength) compared to the base alloy. Ductility of the composites decreased with the addition of reinforcements. Impact strength of the composites showed a marginal reduction; however, the reduction was higher in the single-reinforced composite than hybrid reinforced composites. Fractured morphology showed dimples, cracks, tear ridges, and voids.

This work investigates epoxy composites reinforced by randomly oriented, short glass fibres and silica microparticles. A full-factorial experiment evaluates the effects of glass fibre mass fraction (15 and 20 wt%) and length (5 and 10 mm), and the mass fraction of silica microparticles (5 and 10 wt%) on the apparent density and porosity, as well as the compressive and tensile strength and modulus of the hybrid composites. Hybrid epoxy composites present significantly higher tensile strength (9%) and modulus (57%), as well as compressive strength (up to 15%) relative to pure epoxy.

Abstract The material properties of composite materials are affected by changes in temperature and moisture. This study used the glass/carbon fiber reinforced plastic hybrid composite (G/CFRPHC) laminate as the research object. The stiffness and strength of the composite lamina were expressed as a function of hydrothermal parameters. Based on classical lamination theory(CLT) and macro-mechanical analysis, using MATLAB programming, the tensile strength of G/CFRPHC laminates under a hydrothermal environment was studied. In addition, the influence of temperature, ply thickness, ply stacking sequence, and ply angle on the tensile strength of G/CFRPHC laminates under a hydrothermal environment was discussed. The results show that the tensile strength of G/CFRPHC laminates decreases with the increase of temperature and laying angle in the temperature range of 20℃~110℃ in the hydrothermal environment (moisture absorption rate C1=0.5%). Furthermore, for the G/CFRPHC laminates with laying modes of (02G/90mC)S, (04G/90mC)S, (06G/90mC)S, as m increases, their tensile strength gradually decreases. The tensile strength of G/CFRPHC laminates with the same ply angle but different ply stacking sequence is also not the same.
