Abstract

The presence of fibers and fillers in a composite can be an effective way of arresting crack at the macro or micro level. PLA composites fabricated via a solvent casting process with different graphene loadings (1, 3, and 5 wt.%) were embedded in the PLA matrix to produce polymer nanocomposite. In this work, hybrid flax/Kevlar fiber and jute/carbon fiber reinforced with graphene in polylactic acid (PLA) composites have been prepared by using the hot press technique. The comparison to know the effect of different graphene nanofiller concentrations into different hybrid polymer composite was studied by mechanical properties such as flexural and low-velocity impact. Flexural strength and flexural modulus were found to increase at 3 wt.% of nanofiller loadings for graphene/jute/PLA nanocomposites with increment up to 37%, while 1 weight% of graphene loadings of flax/Kevlar composites shows 13.38% of the increment. Fracture from flexural failure was observed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), where the rough surface of the composite structure is relatively related to slow-spreading crack and high-energy absorption in the mixed graphene/PLA matrix. The present study examined the correlation among the composites through flexural and impact properties while discussing the effect of graphene content in aerospace applications.
