Composites are widely used in marine and aerospace applications due to their lightweight, resistance to corrosion and fatigue, and high specific stiffness and strength. This recent study used vinyl ester-based plain e-glass and hybrid composites of e-glass/carbon and kevlar-carbon/carbon fabricated by VARI methods. Tensile, shear, and compressive strength of composites are investigated according to ASTM standards. Comparison of the results to Al 6061-T6 was evaluated. Tensile and compressive strength of kevlar-carbon is superior to e-glass and e-glass carbon. The shear strength of e-glass/carbon hybrid composites is superior to e-glass and kevlar-carbon/carbon composites. Tensile and compressive strength of e-glass/carbon and kevlar-carbon/carbon hybrid composites are higher than Al 6061-T6. However, the shear strength of e-glass, e-glass/carbon, and kevlar-carbon/carbon composites are lower than Al 6061-T6.
