Abstract Single fiber polymer composites containing either natural or artificial fibers may not deliver the desired characteristics. The current study used hand‐layup technique to make a hybrid composite by incorporating fiber, Cordia‐dichotoma (CD) and carbon (CF) in polyester matrix compressing mixture for size. investigates influence of loading (0, 5, 10, 15 wt%) on mechanical, structural, crystalline properties CD/polyester keeping total at 20 wt%. Mechanical are investigated with universal testing machine, impact strength using Izod apparatus. Better mechanical (tensile strength‐457.38 MPa; flexural strength‐290.09 MPa strength‐346.46 J/m) were obtained pure arranged four layers (CF/CF/CF/CF), followed (CF/CD/CD/CF) strength‐319.24 strength‐253.03 strength‐291.34 whereas CD (CD/CD/CD/CD) yielded lowest values strength‐117.96 strength‐164.99 strength‐118.11 J/m). Composites undergo hybridization, which improves their properties, lowers cost, makes them more environmentally friendly. characteristics specimens examined Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X‐ray Diffraction Analysis (XRD), Atomic Force Microscope (AFM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). According findings, crystallinity index is increased from 77.94% CD/CD/CD/CD 78.21% CF/CD/CD/CF composite. Highest 82.46% was CF/CF/CF/CF These be applications involving medium loads.

Abstract Reinforced composite made of polypropylene combining banana and betel nut husk fiber (BBF) was treated with 10% NaOH (w/w). The percentages 40%, 50%, 60% were used using the compression molding process. Properties such as tensile, bending, impact, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), water absorption assessed reinforcements. composites 50% BBF reinforcement performed better than different compositions. While 40% BBF-reinforced showed superior results in tests, impact TGA analyses provided comparatively lower results. tensile strength (36 MPa), bending (78 energy (2.4 Nm), thermal resistance (300–583°), maximum level characteristics attained. This work demonstrated feasibility repurposing waste stems husks for interior decoration, furniture, automobile bodies fiber-reinforced hybrid composites, replacing expensive environmentally hazardous artificial materials due to their mechanical capabilities.

Natural fibres play a crucial role in composites by offering renewable, sustainable, low cost and lightweight alternatives to synthetic fibres, promoting eco-friendly composites. Combination of natural such as jute areca nut fabricating hybrid with superior properties forms the basis this study. It was observed that mechanical increased increasing fibre content. However, exhibited better (strength rigidity) than arecanut leaf due their inherent properties. Hybridisation yielded higher showing combination (30 wt % content) is more effective reinforcing Weathering characteristics revealed water absorption swelling occurred upon exposure external environment, chemicals. Moreover, impact also decreased subsequent weathering. Finite element analysis carried out on these under tensile flexural loading conditions similar trends experimental results. Remarkable hybridisation give them potential be used different domains automobile interiors, furniture, packaging, etc., lower use fibres.
