Abstract

Hybrid composites are increasingly being used due to their exceptional performance in many applications. Hybrid composites use reinforcement to enhance the qualities of the composites. Fiber plays a crucial role in composites, and when hybrid fiber composites are created, it leads to improved qualities and environmental benefits. This review of research elucidated the process of combining fiber-reinforced composites and examined their impact on their mechanical characteristics. The flexural modulus increases linearly as the quantity of natural fiber in increases up to 30 weight%. Flexural strength and modulus of natural with 30% bamboo fiber are 22% and 21.6% higher, respectively, than those of pure PP lattice, respectively. The tensile strength of the glass fiber stacking increased as the weight% of the fiber increased from 0 to 8.2%, 16.5%, and 25.2% of the total fiber weight of 42%. Elasticity increased by 9.6%, 37%, and 54.56% in the twist bearing and 54.3%, 91.4%, and 148.3% in the weft course. The combination of natural and synthetic fiber always produce better results for past decays results with better applications in all the fields.
