PublicationEffect of elevated temperature on the tensile strength of Napier/glass-epoxy hybrid reinforced composites( 2017-11-07)The effects of elevated temperature on the tensile strength of Napier/glass-epoxy hybrid reinforced composites and its morphology of fractured surfaces are discussed. Napier/glass-epoxy hybrid reinforced composites were fabricated by using vacuum infusion method by arranging Napier fibres in between sheets of woven glass fibres. Napier and glass fibres were laminated with estimated volume ratios were 24 and 6 vol. %, respectively. The epoxy resin was used as matrix estimated to 70 vol. %. Specimens were tested to failure under tension at a cross-head speed of 1 mm/min using Universal Testing Machine (Instron) with a load cell 100 kN at four different temperatures of RT, 40°C, 60°C and 80°C. The morphology of fractured surface of hybrid composites was investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy. The result shows reduction in tensile strength at elevated temperatures. The increase in the temperature activates the process of diffusion, and generates critical stresses which cause the damage at first-ply or at the centre of the hybrid plate, as a result lower the tensile strength. The observation of FESEM images indicates that the fracture mode is of evolution of localized damage, from fibre/matrix debonding, matric cracking, delamination and fibre breakage.

PublicationEffect of surface roughness of pure aluminium A1100 on the cold work extrusion by using different angles of taper die( 2014)
;Mohd Hafis Sulaiman ;N. Fitriah SuhaimiThe study presented in this paper is focused on the effect of surfaces roughness of pure aluminium A1100 on the cold work extrusion process by three different angles of taper die. Different angles of taper die will affect the surface roughness of the workpiece. To protect the surface and to reduce friction, lubricants are often used in extrusion process [1]. Different lubricants may have different optimum taper die angle that are suitable to be applied. Two types of materials used in this experiment are steel SKD 11 for taper die and aluminium A1100 for workpiece and different angles applied are 30°, 45°, and 60°. Moreover, with respect to each angle, three different types of lubricants were used which are Daphne Draw S Series, Palm Olein, and EFB bio oil. The Universal Testing Machine and Surface Roughness Tester were used in this experiment. The result obtained from the experiment shows that at 30° of taper die angle were producing the smooth product surfaces for each lubricant and Daphne Draw S Series could reduce the surface roughness compared to other lubricant test. -

PublicationEffect of pineapple leaf (PALF), napier, and hemp fibres as filler on the scratch resistance of epoxy composites( 2019)
;E.H.D. GanS. SyahrullailThis article presents the effects of pineapple leaf (PALF), napier, and hemp fibres as filler on the scratch resistance of epoxy composites. In particular, it explores the effect of these natural fillers on the horizontal load, coefficient of friction (COF), penetration depth, fracture toughness, scratch hardness, brittleness index and scratch observation. The mixing method using magnetic stirrer was used to produce the natural fibre-filled epoxy composites with different wt%, namely, 5, 7.5, and 10 wt%. The test was performed using a CSM Revetest Xpress, which consisted of a cone of the half-apex angle of 60° ending with a sphere having a tip radius of 200 μm. The indenter scratch distance and speed were 7 mm and 1.5 mm/min, respectively. The results show that the napier fibre-filled epoxy composites have the highest peak load and COF. It was also noted that the napier fibre-filled epoxy composites have the lowest penetration depth for each wt% of filler. Lastly, the fracture toughness (Kc) for the napier fibre-filled epoxy composites with 10 wt% of filler yielded the highest value of 4.33 MPa.m1/2. It can also be seen that using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), the amount of debris increased with higher of wt% of the natural fibre fillers in the composites. Hence it was demonstrated that the napier fibre-filled epoxy composites have higher scratch resistance compared to the PALF and hemp fibre-filled epoxy composites.
