  Abstract: This study examines the mechanical properties of hybrid composite laminates reinforced with Kevlar, sisal, and S-glass fibers, and incorporating ceramic fillers—silicon carbide (SiC) and aluminum oxide (Al2O3)—within an epoxy matrix. The hand lay-up method was utilized to produce the laminates, ensuring a uniform fiber stacking sequence and including 10% filler material. Two composite variations were synthesized: one incorporating SiC and the other Al₂O₃, and both underwent tensile, flexural, hardness, and …
