Now a days hybrid composites materials becoming of key importance from an economical and ecological compatibility point of view using synthetic fibers such as carbon, glass, aramid, etc. is expensive because of higher cost of individual fibers. This requires alternative materials with less production cost and maximum strength. Naturally available jute and synthetic fiber carbon were used as reinforcement in this work. Natural fibers are inexpensive and synthetic fibers has greater strength which provides faster biodegradable rate compared to only synthetic composite materials such as glass, carbon and aramid, which are used as reinforcements and the cost become optimized. In this work, the objective was to develop, investigate and analyze the tensile behavior of a composite material using jute fiber and carbon fiber sandwich type composite. The results were studied. The experimental results shows that hybrid composites are having significantly greater value. The primary objective of the present work is to find the tensile properties of jute and carbon reinforced hybrid composite consists of 80% of jute and 8% of carbon fiber T-700 is used as a reinforcement and other 12% epoxy resin Ly556.
