Effect Of Water Absorption Towards Mechanical And Physical Properties Of Hybrid Flax/Glass Fiber Laminated Composites

The moisture uptake of flax/glass hybrid laminated composite in the function of time after immersion in various solutions was studied. Synthetic fiber and natural fiber were combined by using hybrid concept. Two type nine layers of hybrid composites with different stacking sequences were fabricated...
