Abstract
Fibres made of metal are very strong. Glass fibre is a key component in the design of numerous composite applications. High stiffness, high tensile strength, low weight, good chemical resistance, high temperature tolerance, and minimal thermal expansion are only a few of the benefits of carbon fibres. Thus, in the current study, a hybrid composite material is created by varying the combinations of glass, carbon, and metallic fibres. For every combination, the tensile and impact stress characterizations were established. It is employed in the creation of Glass-Metallic-Carbon composites, which are utilised in sports and auto bumper applications. The composite laminates had dimensions of 30 cm by 30 cm by 3 mm and were made via compression moulding and hand layup. For the tensile and impact tests, the ASTM D 3039 (250 x 25 x 3) and ASTM D256 (64 x 12.7 x 3.2 mm) standards were adhered to. For the flexion and compression testing, the ASTM D 3410 (140 x 25 x 3 mm) and ASTM D 7264 (16 x 13 x 3 mm) standards were adhered to, respectively.
