Overview

Research finds enhanced mechanical and thermal properties in epoxy composites made with natural fibers, suggesting sustainable alternatives.

Key Points

  • The hybrid epoxy composite with a 2:1 CF/SG fiber ratio showed superior mechanical and thermal characteristics.
  • At a 30% fiber loading, the composite exhibited reduced water absorption, enhancing overall performance and durability.
  • Using a combination of scanning electron microscopy and thermogravimetric analysis, the study adhered to ASTM standards for testing.
  • The optimal blending ratio for natural fibers provides a promising method for eco-friendly materials with improved traits.
