Abstract:

To analyze the effect of hybrid ratio on the mechanical properties of intralayer hybrid composites, an aramid/carbon fiber-hybrid-reinforced fabric was prepared by interweave, and the blending ratio of carbon fiber in the reinforcement structure was adjusted by the ratio of aramid fiber to carbon fiber in the weft yarn system. The aramid/carbon fiber?reinforced epoxy composites with a hybrid structure were prepared by vacuum assisted molding, and their tensile, flexu?ral and impact properties were investigated. The results indicated that the heterogeneity of aramid and carbon fibers in the latitudinal reinforcement system had a negative effect on the tensile strength of the composites in the warp direction. The increase of hybrid ratio could inhibit the tensile and bending damage of the composites. In the weft direction, the tensile strength and bending strength of the composites increased by 6 and 4.04 times. The synergistic effect of aramid and carbon fibers leads to an improvement in the impact resistance of the composites as well as an optimal hybrid ratio.
