| dc.description.abstract | Fiber Reinforced Composite Materials (FRCPs) are extensively used in aerospace, automotive, structural and multifunctional applications for its outstanding mechanical properties. However, adoption of environment friendly FRCPs that are strong and stiff for multifaced applications are impeded by scarcity of strong natural fibers and compatible biodegradable matrices. Strong and stiff basalt fibers incorporated with ductile yet strong silk fibers can bring out best of both fibers when incorporated with biodegradable Polylactic Acid (PLA) matrix. Incorporation of nanofillers can also augment its energy absorption capacity as well as mechanical properties. Recent literature shows incorporating high temperatures on fabrication process can degrade natural fibers such as silk, which can impede full exploitation of its properties. In this work, composite specimens of 5 different stacking sequences are fabricated via hand layup and vacuum bagging method, where specimens having alternate layers were further incorporated with Graphene Nanoplatelets (GNPs) with 3%, 6% and 9% by weight of PLA matrix. Tensile, flexural, impact, interlaminar shear strength, damping, electrical conductivity and moisture absorption properties were studied as well as its morphological characteristics. This study shows that, alternate layers of basalt-silk-PLA composites report highest values of tensile strength, modulus, interlaminar shear strength, impact energy and flexural strength of 136.54 MPa, 3.42 GPa, 0.484 MPa, 36.842 kJ/m2 and 18.06 MPa respectively. Delamination type failure dominated in all the tested specimens indicating fiber-matrix as the weakest link in failure. Incorporation of GNPs at 6%wt. of matrix significantly improved the damping ratio of tested specimens where ALT-6 has 1.54 times the damping ratio of ALT-0. Specimens were electrically non-conductive at all loadings of GNPs, because of the inability to form conductive networks due to agglomeration. The resulting mechanical properties also explains the effect of fabrication process and effect nanofillers on the interfacial properties of the FRCP. High strength and energy absorbing materials obtained from this study can be applied in multifaceted application with minimal environmental impact. | en_US |
