Abstrakt: The main aim of the present research is to improve the interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) of angora fiber and nano filler-based hybrid composites at low temperatures. Materials and Methods: In the present work, angora fiber is considered a control group and Titanium Oxide nanofiller an intervention or experimental group. The study includes 40 distinct samples. Among these 20 specimens, one was considered an experimental group, while the remaining 20 were considered a control group. The independent group test is performed with 80% of G power. The composite specimens were tested as per the standard ASTM requirements. Results: The results reveal that a concentration of 4.5 wt.% nano- Titanium Oxide particles have a substantial influence on the hardness of nanomaterials. The interlaminar shear behavior of natural fiber-based polymers and hybrid laminates is 28.27 MPa and 37.89 MPa, correspondingly, with a two tailed significant value of 0.005 (p<0.05). Conclusion: The addition of 4.5 wt% nanoscale Titanium Oxide to angora composites improves the new composite's strength significantly. As a result, the fraction of nano Titanium Oxide particles in biocomposites is crucial in determining the mechanical properties of the composite. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
