  • Evaluation of Mechanical and Physical Properties of Hybrid Composites from Food Packaging and Textiles Wastes
    Journal of Polymers and the Environment, 2019
    Co-Authors: Tamer Hamouda, Mustafa Demirelli, Naheed Saba, Ahmed H. Hassanin, Ali Kilic, Zeki Candan, Mohammad Jawaid
    Abstract:

    In the present work, Hybrid Composites were designed by using shredded Tetra Pak packages as food packaging wastes and wool yarn wastes as textiles wastes for potential alternative construction and building materials. Hybrid Composites were fabricated by mixing different ratios (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 wt%) of wool yarn wastes with shredded Tetra Pak wastes. Mechanical properties in terms of flexural, tensile strength, internal bonding (IB) in addition to the impact properties and physical properties in terms of thickness swelling (TS), water absorption (WA) and density of the fabricated Composites were analyzed and compared with the properties of commercial wood particleboards. Results showed that when the ratios of wool yarn wastes increased to 15% in Hybrid Composites, modulus of rupture value reached 15.10 ± 1.01 MPa which is higher than that of particleboards (types P2, P4, and P6 as per the British Standards—BS). The highest IB strength was found to be 0.60 MPa for the Hybrid Composites with 10% wool yarn content, while IB values of the other samples reduced with increasing the amount of wool yarn wastes. Moreover, TS and WA of the fabricated Hybrid Composites were found to be better than commercial particleboards and they also encountered the minimum strength requirements in BS. Overall, we concluded that the developed Hybrid Composites from agro-industrial waste materials could be utilized as promising alternative source of raw materials to manufacture value added eco-friendly, advanced and sustainable structural applications such as wood panels.

  • Nondestructive testing method for Kevlar and natural fiber and their Hybrid Composites
    Durability and Life Prediction in Biocomposites Fibre-Reinforced Composites and Hybrid Composites, 2019
    Co-Authors: Siti Madiha Muhammad Amir, Mohamed Thariq Hameed Sultan, Mohammad Jawaid, Mohamad Ridzwan Ishak, Ahmad Hamdan Ariffin, Shukri Mohd, Khairul Anuar Mohd Salleh, Ain Umaira Md Shah
    Abstract:

    Abstract This chapter highlights the nondestructive testing (NDT) method used for Kevlar and natural fiber and their Hybrid Composites. This chapter also provides various Hybrid Composites between synthetic-synthetic fiber, natural-synthetic fiber and natural-natural fiber, types of defects in Composites, and methods of NDT used to detect and identify defects in various Composites. From the review, NDT methods are widely applied in detecting defects in Composites made from synthetic fiber. However, there are limited resources in NDT methods for Composites from natural fiber, especially for Hybrid Composites between natural-natural fiber. Since more research is being conducted in Hybridizing Composites with natural fiber, modification or development of state-of-the-art NDT techniques for the inspection of such Composites is necessary.

  • thermal properties of sugar palm glass fiber reinforced thermoplastic polyurethane Hybrid Composites
    Composite Structures, 2018
    Co-Authors: A Atiqah, Mohammad Jawaid, S M Sapuan, M R Ishak, Othman Y Alothman
    Abstract:

    Abstract The aim of this work to investigate the effect of glass fiber (GF) on the thermal properties of sugar palm (SP)/thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) Hybrid Composites. Sugar palm/glass fiber Hybrid Composites at the different weight fraction of 0/40, 10/30, 20/20 and 30/10 were prepared by using melt-mixing compounding followed by hot pressing machine. Thermal properties of Hybrid Composites carried out by using Dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA) and thermo-gravimetric analyzer (TGA). The storage modulus (E′), loss modulus (E″) and damping factor (tan δ) were evaluated as a function of different relative sugar palm/glass fiber weight fraction. Also, the peak height was investigated for tan δ curves. At higher glass fiber loading exhibited the highest storage and loss modulus while the lowest damping factor was observed for higher sugar palm fiber loading. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) demonstrated that the amount of residue decreased as the glass fiber loading decreased. Overall, the Hybridization of glass fiber with sugar palm/TPU Composites enhances the thermal properties of the Hybrid Composites for automotive applications .

  • Thermal, physical properties and flammability of silane treated kenaf/pineapple leaf fibres phenolic Hybrid Composites
    Composite Structures, 2018
    Co-Authors: Mohammad Asim, Md Tahir Paridah, Naheed Saba, Mohammad Jawaid, Othman Y Alothman, Mohammed Nasir, Zeyad Almutairi
    Abstract:

    Abstract Silane treated pineapple leaf fibre (PALF) and kenaf fibre were analyzed by Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) that indicated the treated Hybrid composite showed better thermal stability as compared to untreated Hybrid Composites. Dynamic mechanical analysis was carried out to evaluate the storage modulus (E′), loss modulus (E″), and tan delta as a function of temperature. Storage modulus of treated Hybrid Composites displayed highest storage and loss modulus as in comparison of untreated Hybrid Composites. The peak heights of tan α were highest in treated Hybrid Composites. Cole-Cole analysis was also carried out to understand the phase behaviour of the composite samples. Thermal mechanical analysis was used to study mechanical stability of Hybrid Composites in the presence of temperature. The effect of different fibre ratios in Hybridization on density, void content, water absorption (WA), thickness swelling (TS) of PALF/KF Hybrid Composites were also analyzed. Treated Hybrid Composites were not very affective to improve the flammability of PALF/KF Hybrid Composites. The overall results showed that treated PALF/KF/phenolic Hybrid Composites improved the thermal and dynamic mechanical properties over untreated PALF/KF Hybrid Composites.

  • Physical properties of coir and pineapple leaf fibre reinforced polylactic acid Hybrid Composites
    IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2018
    Co-Authors: Ramengmawii Siakeng, Mohammad Jawaid, Hidayah Ariffin, S M Sapuan
    Abstract:

    This study examined the physical behaviour of Coir fibres (CF)/Pineapple leaf fibres (PALF)/Poly lactic acid (PLA) Composites. In this research, coir and PALF reinforced PLA Hybrid Composites were fabricated by hand lay-up process and hot press. The aim of this work is to do comparative study on density, water absorption (WA) and thickness swelling (TS) of untreated CF/PALF reinforced PLA Composites and Hybrid Composites. The effect of different fibre ratios in Hybridization on density, WA and TS of CF/PALF Hybrid Composites were also analyzed and C7P3 showed highest density while P30 had lowest. The results indicated that the density varies on different fibre ratio. WA and TS of CF/PALF Composites and Hybrid Composites vary with fibres ratio and soaking duration. WA and TS of untreated CF/PALF Hybrid Composites were increased by increasing coir fibre ratio so, C30 showed highest WA and TS whereas P30 and C1P1 showed least WA and TS respectively apart from neat PLA.

    2016
    Co-Authors: Venkata G Reddy, Venkata S Naidu, Shobha T Rani
    Abstract:

    ABSTRACT: The mechanical properties of short uniaxially-oriented intimately-mixed kapok/glass fabric-reinforced polyester Hybrid Composites were investigated with reference to the fabric content, keeping the volume ratios of kapok to glass at 1:0, 3:1, 1:1, 1:3, and 0:1. The 9 vol % of fabric for kapok/glass was optimized. Hybrid composite materials were made by hand layup technique. The mechanical properties like tensile and hardness properties of the Composites were studied. Best results were obtained for Composites having increased glass fabric content in kapok/glass. The effect of alkali treatment of fabrics on the mechanical properties of these kapok/glass Hybrid Composites has also been studied. A significant improvement was observed in tensile and hardness properties of these Composites by alkali treatment. Tensile properties were found to be better in Composites having volume ratios of kapok to glass at 1:3 ratios. The Hybrid Composites exhibited good properties compared to the single kind of fabric/polyester Composites

    Co-Authors: Noorunnisa P Khanam, H Abdul P S Khalil, Surya C Narayana, Mohammad Jawaid, Ramachandra G Reddy, Venkata S Naidu
    Abstract:

    The variation of mechanical properties such as tensile and flexural properties of randomly oriented unsaturated polyester based sisal/carbon fibre reinforced Hybrid Composites with different fibre weight ratios have been studied. The chemical resistance test of these Hybrid Composites to various solvents, acids and alkalies were studied. The effect of NaOH treatment of sisal fibres on the tensile, flexural and chemical resistance properties of these sisal/carbon Hybrid Composites has also been studied. The Hybrid Composites showed an increase in tensile and flexural properties with increase in the carbon fibre loading. The tensile properties and flexural properties of these Hybrid Composites have been found to be higher than that of the matrix. Significant improvement in tensile properties and flexural properties of the sisal/carbon Hybrid Composites has been observed by alkali treatment. The chemical resistance test results showed that these untreated and alkali treated Hybrid Composites are resistance to all chemicals except carbon tetra chloride. Hand lay-up technique was used for making the Composites and tests are carried out by using ASTM methods.
