Abstract

The present work aims to study the effect of starch coating in hybrid composite through mechanical, thermal, and acoustic performances. Six composites were fabricated with three different fiber orientations and two positions of α-brass wire mesh. The starch powder elemental compositions were identified through EDX. The results infer a notable mechanical, thermal, and acoustic performance enhancement. Maximum impact energy is shown by treated–coated C6 composite (12.43%) over the C2. The fiber angle influences the impact strength, especially the fiber angle of 90° holds higher energy than other orientations. SEM image shows the coating effects and linearity in fiber dimension. Also, the fiber surface coating minimizes the water absorption (C3&C6), which reduces the composite swelling. In addition, fiber coating reduces the acoustic absorption coefficient of treated–coated C6 (0.104103 α at 1536 Hz), and the lowest transmission losses have been recorded by C4 (0.22 dB at 1848 Hz).
