Glass Fiber/Waste Cotton Fabric Reinforced Hybrid Composites: Mechanical Investigations

In this study, the hybridization effect on the mechanical properties of the natural fiber reinforced composites was investigated. For this purpose, glass fibers in different ratios of 2.5, 5 and 10 wt% were added in the polymer composites with cotton fibers at the ratios of 12.5 and 25 wt%. In order to have better interfacial bonding and increase the effectiveness of glass fiber on the mechanical properties, maleic anhydride coupling agent was added in the hybrid composite structures. At the end of the study, the best ratios of maleic anhydride, cotton and glass fiber for this kind composites were explored with respect to the economical and mechanical concerns. This study suggests that hybridization can be considered as most promising way to improve the mechanical properties for this novel composite materials.
