Comparative analysis on tensile strength of hybrid chromium alloy and synthetic hybrid epoxy composite.

This research is based on the testing and comparison of tensile behaviors of novel hybrid composite reinforced with chromium alloy composite and epoxy polymer composite reinforced with chromium alloy. The materials involved in this study were Three groups of hybrid composites and one control group which are compared in this study for comparing their tensile properties in this particular composite, synthetic fibres such as carbon fibre, kevlar fibre, and glass fibre forms outer surface. The middle layer comprises chromium alloy metal of grade CrNi60WTi. The carbon fibre reinforced chromium alloy composite is denoted as CpCr. Glass fibre reinforced chromium alloy composite is denoted as GfCr and control group consists of epoxy- chromium alloy laminate which is denoted as EpCr. The sample size per group was taken as 20 and total sample size was 80, And they were machined according to the ASTM standards of composite machining using an abrasive jet machining process. The values of tables and respective analysis were collected and compared with each other and it was found that the tensile strength of Cpcr was found to be 113.8100 MPa, tensile strength of KfCr was found to be 74.0210 MPa, tensile strength of GfCr was found to be 51.9230 MPa and tensile strength of control group EpCr was 48.9515 MPa in which four composite groups' significance value of 0.001(P<0.05) was observed. Within the limits of this study, it was found that the tensile strength of CfCr was greater than that of EpCr. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
