TL;DR: In this article, the impact properties of hybrid composites manufactured with the aim of improving their structural characteristics, and in particular, is focused on the impact resistance and penetration behaviour of hybrid composite reinforced with natural and synthetic fibres as well as their suitability for modern structural applications.
Abstract: Recently published research indicates that natural fibre based polymer composites have limited applications in advanced structural systems due to their low impact performance. However, natural fibres have great potential for reducing the product weight, lowering material cost, and renewability. Hybrid composites made from a combination of natural/synthetic fibres, natural/natural fibres, or synthetic/synthetic fibres are also receiving attention from both researchers and the industry for structural applications owing to the tailored mechanical and impact properties of these materials. The hybridisation process is one of the paramount and more efficient ways to strengthen and improve the performance of composite materials. This review paper examines the impact properties of hybrid composites manufactured with the aim of improving their structural characteristics, and in particular, is focused on the impact resistance and penetration behaviour of hybrid composites reinforced with natural and synthetic fibres as well as their suitability for modern structural applications.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors highlighted some of the important breakthroughs associated with the NFRPCs in terms of sustainability, eco-friendliness, and economic perspective, and elucidated the significance of using numerical models for NFRMCs.
Abstract: In the contemporary world, natural fibers reinforced polymer composite (NFRPC) materials are of great interest owing to their eco-friendly nature, lightweight, life-cycle superiority, biodegradability, low cost, noble mechanical properties. NFRPCs are widely applied in various engineering applications and this research field is continuously developing. However, the researchers are facing numerous challenges regarding the developments and applications of NFPRCs due to the inherent characteristics of natural fibers (NFs). These challenges include quality of the fiber, thermal stability, water absorption capacity, and incompatibility with the polymer matrices. Ecological and economic concerns are animating new research in the field of NFRPCs. Furthermore, considerable research is carried out to improve the performance of NFRPCs in recent years. This review highlights some of the important breakthroughs associated with the NFRPCs in terms of sustainability, eco-friendliness, and economic perspective. It also includes hybridization of NFs with synthetic fibers which is a highly effective way of improving the mechanical properties of NFRPCs along with some chemical treatment procedures. This review also elucidates the significance of using numerical models for NFRPCs. Finally, conclusions and recommendations are drawn to assist the researchers with future research directions.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of various treatment such as 6% alkaline (TNSP), 2% silane (TSSP), and combined 6% -alkaline-silane (TNSSP) on physical and thermal properties of sugar palm/glass/thermoplastic polyurethane hybrid composites were investigated.
Abstract: Lignocellulosic/natural fibre and glass fibre-based hybrid composites are considered as high-performance composites but very limited numbers of researchers worked on substituting sugar palm fibre with glass fibre in hybrid composites. The main goal of this research to investigate the effect of various treatment such as 6% alkaline (TNSP), 2% silane (TSSP) and combined 6% alkaline–2% silane (TNSSP) on physical and thermal properties of sugar palm/glass/thermoplastic polyurethane hybrid composites were carried out. Taking into account of physical properties, the combined alkaline–silane treated hybrid composites (TNSSP) showed the lowest density, thickness swelling, and water absorption as compared to other composites. The good thermal stability was discovered for treated as compared to untreated sugar palm fibre based composites (UTSP). Overall, the treated sugar palm/glass/thermoplastic polyurethane hybrid composites suitable for the fabrication of automotive components.
