Novel hybrid laminates consisting of carbon fiber-reinforced polymers and steel plate cold
6 commercial (CFRP-SPCC) have been successfully manufactured and tested in the present study. Four 7 different tests have been made i.e., tensile test, flexural test, double cantilever beam (DCB) or Mode 8 I test, and end notched flexure (ENF) or Mode II test. After being tested, these samples need to be 9 evaluated. Hence, an inappropriate evaluation step while identifying the cause of failure of the failed 10 specimens can create a false conclusion. The present study aims to systematically evaluate the 11 fractured specimens of CFRP-SPCC in different tests (tensile, flexural, DCB, and ENF test) using 12 different tools, i.e., pocket camera, digital microscope, light microscope, and Scanning Electron 13 Microscopy (SEM). The results showed, in terms of tensile, the highest strength occurred with 14 1475.4 MPa. In comparison, the highest flexural strength occurred with 1516.1 MPa, while DCB and
ENF showed the highest values with 116.4 J/m2 and 330 J/m2 15 , respectively. Furthermore, the results 16 showed that digital and light microscopes are satisfied to evaluate the specimen in tensile test. 17 However, for the flexural test, ENF, and DCB test, besides the light microscope, further analysis using 18 SEM-EDX is recommended to evaluate the specimen after failure |
