Yazid Yahya, supervisor Mechanical engineering Not available Natural fibres are getting attention from researchers and academician to utilize in polymer composites due to their eco-friendly nature and sustainability. Fibre Reinforce Polymer Composites (FRPC) are strongly favoured by industries in view of all constraints such as properties, recyclability and environmental aspects. In order to increase the performance of the composite, our industries are focus on the hybrid composite because of their flexible applications and better mechanical properties. Combining two or more fibres in a single matrix could offer a possibility of achieving combined properties such as increasing fatigue life, stiffness, ductility and strength, compared to single fibre reinforced composites. This work takes the hybridizing approach in improving the mechanical properties of Flax Fibre Composite (FFC) through the incorporation of Stainless-steel Wire Mesh (SSWM) into the laminates. This research purposed to evaluate the mechanical behaviour of hybrid flax/steel wire mesh reinforced epoxy composites by tensile, flexural and impact testing. The structure of hybrid composites is such that the SSWM was placed in the top, middle and bottom and one FFC composite. The layer for flax fibre constant for all the samples. The laminates are fabricated using Vacuum Infusion Process (VIP). Mechanical behaviours of the hybrid composites are obtained using tensile, flexural and Charpy impact tests. The result demonstrates that introduction of SSWM lead to better mechanical properties than flax fibre composite. The result shown that SSWM in the middle layer has superior strength in tensile compare to flax fibre composite by 137 % and 161 % in impact properties while SSWM in top layer has superior strength of 147 % in flexural properties. Overall, hybridization of SSWM and flax fibre improves the mechanical properties of flax fibre composite. shafika UTM 85 p.
