  By Ganesan S., Saranraj I, Sravanth Chandaka, U Indra Sai, Sai Nadu Teja, Rexith Reginmons

  Abstract: The current study examines the mechanical behaviour of Aluminum-Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (Al-CFRP) composites fabricated using compression moulding technique, a novel approach combining lightweight aluminium’s ductility with CFRP’s high strength-to-weight ratio. The polymer composites were fabricated by stacking aluminum alloy sheet of 0.5mm thickness and pre-impregnated by 12 layers of carbon fiber cloth of 200 gsm, with epoxy resin between layers, followed by consolidation under controlled temperature and pressure in …
