  • Abstract:
  • The purpose of this study was to investigate how the presence of hybrid filler affected the physical and mechanical characterization of epoxy matrix composites. The construction of this hybrid composite was accomplished through the use of the hand layup method, and the filler content featured variable weight loading in addition to weight ratios. Rice husk and aluminium nitride were both elements that went into the construction of the hybrid system. The results of the tensile, flexural, and micro-hardness tests were consistent with the findings of the surface morphology, void content, chemical composition, and crystalline structure analyses performed on the manufactured samples. Because of the formation of agglomeration, which was previously visible in SEM micrographs, the hybrid composite made of rice husk, aluminium nitride, and epoxy did not show any discernible improvement in tensile or flexural strengths. In addition, the existence of voids is an indication of insufficient adhesion and incompatibility between the hybrid filler and the epoxy matrix. Because of this, the strength of the hybrid filler composites is negatively impacted.
