This research aims to explore the mechanical and fatigue characteristics of carbon/flax/sisal fiber reinforced hybrid epoxy composites.
Five laminate configurations with varying carbon fiber content (20%-100%) were fabricated.
Tensile strength, flexural strength, impact resistance, and fatigue life were evaluated.
Regression modeling was applied for flexural test results.
Tensile strength increased from 80 MPa (20% CF) to 398.45 MPa (100% CF).
Flexural strength improved from 138 MPa to 584 MPa with increasing CF content.
Fatigue strength increased from approximately 45.8 MPa to 159.38 MPa at 10^6 cycles.
