development of Glass Fiber wollastonite reinforced polypropylene hybrid composite mechanical properties and morphology
Materials Science and Engineering A-structural Materials Properties Microstructure and Processing, 2010Co-Authors: Joshi Himani, J PurnimaAbstract:Hybridization with small amounts of mineral Fibers makes these Glass Fiber composites more suitable for technical applications. This study focused on the performance of injection molded short wollastonite Fiber and chopped Glass Fiber reinforced hybrid polypropylene composites. Results showed that hybridization of Glass Fiber and wollastonite was found to be comparable to that of polypropylene Glass Fiber composites. Analysis of Fiber length distribution in the composite and fracture surface was performed to study Fiber breakage fracture mechanism. The simultaneous compounding of polypropylene with two fillers was done to obtain a hybrid composite. The mechanical properties of hybrid, injection molded, chopped Glass Fiber/wollastonite/polypropylene composites have been investigated taking into account the effect of hybridization by these two types of fillers. This system is expected to have considerable mechanical properties, good surface finish and low cost. It has been found that the tensile, flexural, and impact properties of the filled polypropylene were higher than those of unfilled polypropylene. The hybrid effects of the tensile strength and modulus were studied by the rule of hybrid mixtures (RoHM) using the values of single Fiber composites.

tensile and interfacial properties of unidirectional flax Glass Fiber reinforced hybrid composites
Composites Science and Technology, 2013Co-Authors: Yongli Zhang, Yan Li, Tao YuAbstract:Abstract This paper studied the mechanical behaviors of unidirectional flax and Glass Fiber reinforced hybrid composites with the aim of investigation on the hybrid effects of the composites made by natural and synthetic Fibers. The tensile properties of the hybrid composites were improved with the increasing of Glass Fiber content. A modified model for calculating the tensile strength was given based on the hybrid effect of tensile failure strain. The stacking sequence was shown to obviously influence the tensile strength and tensile failure strain, but not the tensile modulus. The fracture toughness and interlaminar shear strength of the hybrid composites were even higher than those of Glass Fiber reinforced composites due to the excellent hybrid performance of the hybrid interface. These macro-scale results have been correlated with the twist flax yarn structure, rough surface of flax Fiber and Fiber bridging between flax Fiber layers and Glass Fiber layers.
