Mechanical, thermal, and water absorption behaviour of jute/carbon reinforced hybrid composites

The demand for fiber-reinforced composite materials is increasing in structural applications due to their crucial characteristics such as stiffness, strength, and durability and processing benefits at low cost. In this study, jute/carbon hybrid composite laminates were investigated for the effect of fabric hybridization and stacking sequence on tensile, impact, microhardness, water absorption, and thermal behavior of the material. The hand layup...
