  Abstract: Natural fiber composites (NFCs) have experienced significant growth and innovation in recent research because to their advantages over synthetic fiber composites, including their lower cost and environmental impact. This paper investigates the tension and compression properties of hybrid laminate composites composed of stainless-steel wire mesh, epoxy resin reinforced with basalt fibre, and silicon carbide (SiC) filler. Composites with varying weight percentages of SiC filler (0%, 1.5%, and 3%), were made …
