Abstract
Eco friendly composite laminates exposed for sea water sustainable boat structure are hybrid laminates, built up from interlacing layers of thin metals and fiber reinforced adhesives. The aim is to explore alternative materials and technique that reduced environmental impact while maintaining structural integrity and durability. Competing materials like advanced metal alloys and fiber reinforced composites have potential to increase the cost effectiveness of the structure. These materials still have their advantages and disadvantages, like the poor fatigue strength of the metal alloys and the poor impact and residual strength properties of fiber reinforced composites. The idea of using the two materials to form a hybrid composite structural material to overcome most of the disadvantages of both materials. The advantage becomes highly evident if cracks start in one of the sheets of the laminate only, the adhesive layers behaving as crack dividers. Under these circumstances, the sheets that are still uncracked reduce the crack growth rate in the cracked sheet. The reduction in the crack growth rates persists until a crack is initiated in the neighbouring sheet also. These composites offer enormous advantages especially for structural applications on Marine environments to uplift of traditional fishing mankind.
