  • Ballistic and drop-weight impact response of SS304 metal mesh embedded woven flax/hemp fiber hybrid composites
    R. Elayaraja, G. Rajamurugan
    Scientific Reports, 2026
    This research looks over the way hybrid natural fiber composites reinforced with woven SS304 wire mesh and flax-hemp yarns behave under low and high speed impacts. The hand lay-up approach was used to create hybrid laminates with alkali-treated flax fibers serving as the main reinforcement and epoxy resin serving as the matrix. The interlaminar strength and energy absorption capability of the stainless-steel mesh were enhanced by weaving it with hemp and flax strands. S1 (Flax/SS304/Flax) and S2 (Flax/SS304/Flax with woven hemp-flax yarns) are the two stacking sequences that were developed. Drop heights of 0.5 m and 1 m were used for low-velocity impact examinations, while a gas-gun apparatus was used for high-velocity ballistic evaluations. Based on the results, the woven hybrid structure (S2) outperformed the non-woven design (S1) in impact and ballistic performance, with energy absorption rates up to 25% higher and specific energy absorption rates 20% higher. The incorporation of SS304 mesh enhanced delamination resistance and localized load redistribution, while the utilization of hemp fibers permitted ductile deformation and delayed fracture development. Metal mesh and natural fibers worked together to improve crashworthiness and damage tolerance through a controlled, gradual failure mechanism. The results show that hybrid composites made of wire mesh and natural fibers can be a viable, lightweight alternative to traditional structural and ballistic protection materials.

  • Weaving Architecture-Driven Changes in Mechanical, Vibration and Acoustic Behaviour of Metal Mesh Embedded Natural Fiber Hybrid Composite
    R. Elayaraja, G. Rajamurugan
    Polymers for Advanced Technologies, 2026
    This research aims to develop an innovative fiber‐reinforced polymer composite that integrates the advantages of flax fibers using a unique flax yarn‐weaving technique on a stainless‐steel 304 wire mesh (FSS 304). Although flax fibers offer advantageous reinforcement characteristics, their intrinsic mechanical constraints have prompted the investigation of hybrid composite designs with enhanced performance. This paper describes the fabrication and characterization of a novel hybrid composite that uses the synergistic reimbursement of FSS 304 and flax fibers, yielding a lightweight yet durable material appropriate for diverse engineering applications. Four distinct configurations (F30°, F45°, F60°, and F90°) were fabricated to examine the effects of the reinforcement orientation. The experimental findings indicate that the integration of FSS 304 markedly improves the composite hardness (F90°‐23.8 VHN), impact resistance (F30°—8.4 J), flexural strength (F90°—106.58 MPa), and tensile strength (F90°—49.2 MPa). Furthermore, acoustic analysis demonstrated that the fiber orientation substantially influences sound absorption and transmission loss, with the F90° orientation exhibiting the most effective noise reduction, especially in the 600–2000 Hz frequency range. The composite F45°‐oriented FSS 304 enhanced the natural frequency by 22%. Microstructural analysis by SEM and EDX confirmed the elemental composition. The resulting lightweight and eco‐friendly composites exhibit enhanced performance for diverse engineering applications.
  • Architectural Hybridization of Natural Fibers With SS304 Wire Mesh for Superior Interlaminar Integrity
    R. Elayaraja, G. Rajamurugan
    Polymer Composites, 2026
    Delamination is a critical failure mode in laminated polymer composites, where interlaminar crack growth under out of plane loading causes rapid stiffness and strength loss. This study investigates flax fiber hybrid laminates reinforced with SS304 stainless steel wire mesh to enhance interlaminar performance, with and without a novel weaving architecture. Two laminates were fabricated by hand lay‐up: a nonwoven hybrid laminate (F0) and a woven hybrid laminate (F2), in which flax and hemp yarns were interlaced through mesh openings to create a mechanically anchored interphase. Fibers were alkali‐treated with 5% NaOH to improve fiber‐matrix adhesion. Interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) was measured using short‐beam shear tests, and Mode‐I fracture toughness was determined by double cantilever beam (DCB) testing. The woven laminate (F2) showed higher ILSS (11.02 MPa) than F0 (7.39 MPa), indicating better interfacial bonding and through‐thickness load transfer. Mode‐I fracture toughness also improved from 583 J/m 2 (F0) to 838 J/m 2 (F2), a 30% increase, demonstrating greater resistance to delamination. Fractography revealed matrix cracking and fiber pullout in F0, while F2 exhibited crack deflection, yarn bridging, and higher frictional energy dissipation. Weaving‐assisted metal‐natural fiber hybridization effectively enhances delamination resistance and shear performance in sustainable composite laminates.
  • Mechanical and dynamic performance of stainless steel and nylon mesh reinforced hybrid kevlar/glass fiber composites
    G Rajamurugan, R Elayaraja, Amod Paba, Samarjeet Singh, Vinayak Vir Singh, M Arul Murugan
    Engineering Research Express, 2025
    This research details an extensive experimental examination of the mechanical and dynamic properties of hybrid composites strengthened with E-glass and Kevlar fibers, and further improved with SS 304 stainless steel and nylon mesh. Four laminate configurations were fabricated via hand lay-up techniques, with variations in stacking sequences like C1- Glass fiber 2 layer/Nylon mesh/Glass fiber 2 layer/SS 304 wire mesh/Glass fiber 2 layer, C2- Kevlar fiber 2 layer/Nylon mesh/Kevlar fiber 2 layer/SS 304 wire mesh/Kevlar fiber 2 layer, C3- Glass fiber 2 layer/Nylon mesh/Kevlar fiber 2 layer/SS 304 wire mesh/Glass fiber 2 layer, C4- Kevlar fiber 2 layer/Nylon mesh/Glass fiber 2 layer/SS 304 wire mesh/Kevlar fiber 2 layer. Composite C1, outperforming all other specimens tested, had impressive flexural strength (505.89 MPa), Vickers hardness (24.76 HRM), and tensile strength (199.67 MPa). The composite with the greatest impact energy absorption was C3, which measured 4.76 J. Data from DMA showed that C1 had better viscoelastic characteristics than other materials. It was very stiff and thermally stable, with a storage modulus of up to 5000 MPa and a glass transition temperature close to 80 °C. Microstructural analyses with field emission scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy verified the homogeneity of the reinforcement phases and the durability of the fiber-matrix adhesion. These results demonstrate the promise of mesh-reinforced Kevlar-glass hybrid composites for structural uses requiring extreme heat resistance, toughness, and strength.
  • Utilizing woven flax/hemp yarn on SS304 wiremesh reinforced flax fiber composites for tribological applications
    R. Elayaraja, G. Rajamurugan
    Results in Engineering, 2025
    The rising demand for lightweight and sustainable materials across multiple industries, such as automotive and construction has propelled the advancement of natural fiber-reinforced composites. Nonetheless, obstacles persist in enhancing their tribological performance for rigorous applications. This research utilized a central composite design to enhance the wear and friction characteristics of flax fiber reinforced integrating flax and hemp yarns with the stainless steel 304 wire mesh (FSS 304). Different loads and fiber orientations (45°, 60°, and 90°) demonstrated that a 90° orientation reduced the wear rate to 1.37 × 10⁻⁷ g/m, whereas a the 45° orientation generally yielded a lower coefficient of friction at higher loads, achieving the overall minimum CoF of 0.2721, although at 10 N, its CoF was highest among the orientations. This underscores the impact of fiber orientation on wear and friction processes. The predictive model, which used response surface methodology (RSM), accurately captured the trends in the experiments with high R² values. This showed that it was strong enough to predict wear and friction behavior. Erosion tests revealed that the 60° orientation exhibited the greatest erosion resistance, with a mass loss of 0.0186 g. These findings highlight the significance of fiber orientation in the design of natural fiber composites for specific tribological performance.

  • Investigating the Moisture Absorption Characteristics of a Composite Material Produced from Waste Plastic Filled with Pineapple Fibre Reinforcement
    M. Babu, R. Elayaraja, S. Suresh, V. Sugan
    International Journal of Advanced Science and Engineering, 2025
    This study focuses on addressing the issue of moisture ingress in polymer composites, a factor that often compromises structural performance and limits service life, especially in humid or outdoor conditions.A hybrid composite was fabricated using pineapple fibre as reinforcement and waste plastic particles as filler, aiming to improve resistance to water absorption.Composites with varying fibre and filler proportions were prepared and tested in accordance with ASTM standards.Statistical evaluation using analysis of variance (ANOVA) indicated that pineapple fibre content exerted the most significant influence on water absorption (p < 0.001), followed by waste plastic content (p = 0.005), whereas the chemical surface treatment showed minimal impact (p = 0.083).The combination of 5% pineapple fibre, 15% waste plastic, and sodium hydroxide treatment yielded the lowest water uptake over both 4 hr and 24 hr immersion periods.These results highlight the potential of incorporating recycled plastic as effective filler for producing moisture-resistant, sustainable composites.The findings can guide the development of eco-friendly materials for use in applications such as construction panels, automotive parts, and other components requiring enhanced durability in moist environments.

  • Wear and erosion performance of metal mesh-reinforced natural fiber hybrid composites—a critical review
    Elayaraja R, Rajamurugan G
    Materials Research Express, 2025
    Composites made of natural fibers and polymers are a new, environmentally friendly option for many industrial and construction processes, including those in the transportation, aerospace, marine, and civil engineering industries. They are attractive options for lightweight structural components due to their intrinsic qualities, which include low density, biodegradability, and cost-effectiveness. The development of micro-cracks, moisture sensitivity, and weak fiber-matrix adhesion limit their practical use in situations prone to wear and erosion because these factors decrease their durability and reliability. Mesh reinforcements made of metals like stainless steel, copper, or aluminum are becoming more popular as a solution to these problems. Mechanical and tribological properties are improved when metallic meshes are embedded in the composite matrix. This occurs because the meshes improve interfacial bonding, promote uniform stress transfer, and effectively control fracture propagation. Adding nanoscale reinforcements, which have self-lubricating and crack-arresting properties, can further improve the material by creating synergistic strengthening at different sizes. Important design aspects, including as the mesh arrangement, fiber orientation, stacking sequence, and hierarchical interaction amongst reinforcements, determine the extent to which performance is improved. Recent advances in the study of fiber-metal mesh hybrid composites’ tribological and erosional behavior are examined in this review, which aims to shed light on the main processes involved, including fiber pull-out, matrix cracking, crack bridging, and load transfer over metallic networks. The study also details future directions involving hybrid multi-scale designs, engineered fiber-mesh interfaces, and predictive modeling strategies to achieve superior and long-lasting tribological performance, and it highlights their potential applications in high-performance sectors like braking systems, marine components, protective coatings, and structural reinforcements.
