Development & Characterization of Green Composites Using Novel 3D Woven Preforms
Source abstract
Abstract
Green composites are the emerging materials made using natural fibers and environmentally degradable matrix such as green epoxy. Natural fiber composites are the motivation of researchers for low to medium impact applications as well as structural applications like automobiles. In this research work, 3D orthogonal layer to layer (LL) and through the thickness (TT) woven structures with different interlocking patterns, used as preforms in composites are presented. The mechanical properties of preform as well as associated composites are studied on equivalent fiber volume fraction. Jute yarn was woven into four layered 3D woven structures. The use of bridgeable and sustainable fiber, with its prospective use with the biodegradable matrix, is the objective of this work. The focus of this study is to improve mechanical performance by changing weave pattern, so that the resulting composite is robust in design.
