The tensile behavior, flexural strength and impact strength were studied in this
research for some epoxy composites. First, epoxy composite reinforced with
carbon fibers (chopped), secondly,hybrid epoxy composite reinforced with carbon
fibers (chopped) and glass fibers (woven roven) with volumefraction(30) % for
each type.The tests were done at room temperature (34±2 ºC). In this work the
hybrid composite (C+G/Epoxy) have the higher mechanical properties than that
composite (C/Epoxy).The results shown that the exists of woven glass fiber
increasing the tensile behavior, flexural strength and impact strength of hybrid
composite in comparison with the composite reinforced with randomly chopped
carbon fibers.
Keywords:Epoxy Composites, Hybrid, Strength, Mechanical Properties.
