Metal-fibre reinforced hybrid composites are used in various applications in the aircraft, spacecraft, automobile, consumer products sector. The performance characteristics of such re-in forced hybrid composites are to be studied before using them in any applications. Since analytical methods are complicated due to anisotropic nature of composites, investigational procedures are widely used to characterize composite materials. This work focuses on the fabrication and investigation on tensile, flexural behaviour of plain and metal mesh fibre reinforced hybrid composites. The specimens were fabricated and tested for the above mentioned characteristics as per ASTM standards. The Tensile property of the plain laminates, laminates with single plain mesh and double plain mesh are found to be 100.64 N/mm2, 55.55 N/mm2 and 66.05 N/mm2 respectively viz., Laminate with plain mesh have more tensile strength. The Flexural strength of the plain laminates, laminates with single plain mesh and double plain mesh are found to be 900 N/mm2, 1000N/mm2and 1000N/mm2 respectively. Flexural strength of metal mesh laminates shows some improvement when compared to plain laminates. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
