Abstract

In this study, the mechanical and dynamic properties of glass/aramid interply hybrid composites reinforced with four different nanoparticles were investigated. Firstly, matrix modification was performed and composite plates were manufactured by hand lay-up technique. Silicon dioxide (SiO2), graphene (GNP), silver (Ag) and cerium oxide (CeO2) nanoparticles were added to the epoxy matrix as reinforcement. With the addition of nanoparticles, the highest tensile (16%) and flexural (67.3%) strengths were observed in Ag reinforced composites. Tensile (16.8%) and flexural (14.4%) strengths decreased with the addition of graphene nanoparticles. Tensile and flexural tests revealed delamination, matrix and fibre rupture in all plate types. As a result of modal analysis, the highest natural frequency values and the lowest damping ratios were determined in the FFBC boundary condition. The addition of nanoparticles improved the mechanical properties of the composites in general
