Performance Evaluation of Kevlar-Sisal-S-Glass Hybrid Composites with Ceramic Fillers for Structural ApplicationsBy V Ravi Raj, G Ashwin Prabhu, R Sanjeevi, P Ranjith Kumar, N Sivashanmugam, D Philip Selvaraj, H M Anil Kumar, S. Anandha Prabhavathy
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 …
