Mechanical and Morphological Analysis of Jute/Manila Hemp Hybrid Composites for Enhanced Structural Performance
Abstract: Natural fiber composites are renowned for their lightweight, strength, corrosion resistance, and high strength-to-weight ratio, often surpassing traditional metals. Despite challenges such as poor fiber-matrix adhesion and moisture susceptibility, hybridizing composites present a viable solution by enabling tailored properties for optimal performance. This study investigates hand-lay-up processed natural fiber composites, specifically woven jute/epoxy, non-woven manila hemp/epoxy, and their hybrid variants. Extensive testing was conducted on mechanical properties including hardness, flexural …
