Aluminium composites are in predominant use due to their lower weight and high strength among the MMC’s. Aluminium 6061 is selected as matrix and E-glass fiber is selected as reinforcement. Fabrication of composite is done by stir casting method. Each fabrication carries the E-glass reinforcement content varied from 2% to 10%. The present article attempts to evaluate the mechanical properties of E-glass fibre reinforced composite and study the effect of reinforcement on the matrix alloy through mechanical properties. When compared to ascast mechanical properties the UTS has increased from 74.28 N/sq mm to 146.8 N/sq mm for a composite at 6% E-glass. The hardness of as-cast has also increased from 22 RHB to 43 RHB at 6% E-glass and the wear of composite has exhibited a decreasing tend with increase in reinforcement content along the sliding distance. The results are analyzed in certain depth in the current paper. The mechanical properties of composites have improved with the increase in the weigh percentage of glass fiber in the aluminium matrix.

Composites with nano-SiO2 particles and high density polyethylene (HDPE) matrix were produced by hot pressing with various particle contents and particle surface treatment using commercially available silane coupling agents: γ-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxy silane and γ- glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane. The influence of the particle treatment on the mechanical properties of composites was determined by compression and indentation tests. Additionally, numerical analysis was performed in order to calculate Young’s modulus and stress concentrations for various particle contents in order to provide reference data by simulating micro- and macro particle composites with perfect bonding to the matrix.

In this paper, the effect of surface modification of short glass fiber on some properties ofhigh-density polyethylene composite was investigated. The chemical treatment of short glassfiber (SGF) with solvent ethanol was achieved, and composites with weight fraction (0.5, 2.5,4wt. %) were fabricated. Mechanical behavior tests include (tensile strength, impact, andhardness tests) and structure test (FTIR) were used. Values of mechanical tests for treatedshort glass fiber – reinforced High density polyethylene composites were much better thanthe neat high density polyethylene. The tensile strength value of composite from (37 to 41MPa), impact strength from (83 J/m² to 100 J/m²), and hardness from (64 to 86 N/m²). Resultof FTIR test showed physical reaction without the formation of new peaks.
