Authors: Dundović Zdenko , Mohorić Marijana
Published: January 2025

U radu se razmatra djelovanje gradskoga svećenstva u Zadru u službi učitelja i kateheta u 18. stoljeću. Analizom i sintezom dostupnoga arhivskoga gradiva i dosad objavljenih rezultata znanstvenih istraživanja nastojat će se prikazati obrazovni i katehetski doprinos svećenstva u Zadru tijekom 18. stoljeća te onodobne katehetske priručnike, dostupne u katehizaciji djece i mladih na širem hrvatskom području. Ujedno se u radu postavlja teza da je tijekom 18. stoljeća u Zadru bila u primjeni stupnjevitost katehizacije u skladu s dobnim i društvenim skupinama te spolom, koju se okvirno može podijeliti u tri dijela: kateheza djece, kateheza mladih (adolescenata) i kateheza odraslih, te da se za svaku dobnu skupinu odabiralo svećenika katehetu s dostatnom naobrazbom i pastoralnim iskustvom. Uz to, dokazat će se da su katehezu u Zadru u 18. stoljeću, u skladu s crkvenim normama i biskupskim dopusnicama, održavali i učitelji laici.
Korespondencija Josip
Juraj Strossmayer – Lujo Vojnović kao povijesni izvor. II. dio (1893. – 1901.)
Authors: Grijak Zoran
Published: January 2025

U radu se analiziraju pisma iz korespondencije J. J. Strossmayer – L. Vojnović iz razdoblja 1893. – 1901. kao nastavak istraživanja iz prije objavljenog rada. S obzirom na činjenicu da je osnovni znanstveni kriterij u analizi spomenute korespondencije bio istraživački obuhvatiti jedino ona pisma koja se sadržajem referiraju na pojedine važnije unutarnje i međunarodne aspekte hrvatske politike, a ostala samo uvrstiti u priloge i popratiti ih znanstvenim aparatom, treba naglasiti da je u objavljenom prvom dijelu rada Korespondencija Josip Juraj Strossmayer – Lujo Vojnović kao povijesni izvor. I. dio (1885. – 1892.) analizom samo dvaju od pet pisama napravljen izbor u skladu s naznačenim kriterijem te da je i u drugom dijelu korespondencije takav izbor dosljedno primijenjen, znanstveno-istraživačkim obuhvatom četiriju od devet pisama. Prvo pismo koje se analizira u drugom dijelu rada Strossmayerovo je pismo Vojnoviću od 25. srpnja 1893., koje se odnosi na veliku proslavu u povodu otkrivanja spomenika hrvatskoga kipara Ivana Rendića znamenitom hrvatskom književniku Ivanu Gunduliću, najeminentnijem predstavniku dubrovačkoga baroknoga književnoga kruga, u Dubrovniku od 25. do 27. lipnja 1893. Zatim se analiziraju tri pisma koja tvore zaseban tematski blok. Odnose se na putovanje Luja i Koste Vojnovića u Moskvu i Sankt Peterburg 1893., uz visoke preporuke biskupa Strossmayera, poglavito zato da bi u Sankt Peterburgu, na ruskom dvoru, pokušali ishoditi povratak veleposjeda svojega glasovitog pretka Marka Ivanova Vojnovića (1750. – 1807.) u Ruskom Carstvu. Relevantnost toga segmenta korespondencije nalazi se napose u činjenici da Strossmayer u njemu iznosi svoja stajališta o važnoj ulozi Rusije u oblikovanju europske kulture i politike.
Effect of pyrolysis temperature and time of robusta coffee husk on yield and product characteristics
Authors: Nguyen Thi , Vu Ngoc , Le Hong , Nguyen Hong
Published: January 2025

The utilization and recycling of biochar from coffee husks is a global issue,
as 1.8 million tons of coffee husks were produced in 2023. The mechanism of
coffee husk pyrolysis and the factors influencing pyrolysis temperature and
time on the properties of biochar were studied. Coffee husks were pyrolyzed
at 350, 450, and 550?C and held for 30, 45, 60 min to form biochar, the
physicochemical properties of biochar were characterized by
thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction, surface morphology, and
Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The pyrolysis of coffee husks
occurs due to dehydration, decomposition, and carbonization reactions.
Pyrolysis temperature and time directly affect the yield of biochar, pH,
fixed carbon, volatile matter, ash, nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium
contents. Furthermore, pyrolysis temperature has a greater influence on the
properties of biochar than pyrolysis time. The high potassium content of
biochar can significantly replace conventional potash fertilizers.
Therefore, biochar plays a dual role as a liming agent and can be used as a
soil additive.
La construcción del conocimiento en ambientes híbridos de aprendizaje: fundamentos epistémico-metodológicos
Authors: Díaz Torres Maricruz , Benítez Pérez Alma Alicia
Published: January 2025

La situación postpandemia ha impulsado el uso de ambientes híbridos de aprendizaje en las instituciones educativas, al considerarse herramientas puente entre los espacios presenciales y virtuales para la construcción del conocimiento estudiantil. En este contexto, vincular actividades presenciales y virtuales ha transformado significativamente la forma en que los estudiantes adquieren conocimientos. Por ello, esta investigación analizó los fundamentos epistémico-metodológicos presentes en la construcción del conocimiento de estudiantes de nivel superior, basándose en la teoría socioconstructivista. A través de una metodología cualitativa, se realizó una investigación documental con 83 fuentes primarias y secundarias, extraídas de bases de datos como Emerald Insight, Taylor & Francis Online, Scopus, Web of Science, Redalyc y Scielo, así como de la UNAM y el IPN. El análisis permitió identificar que la construcción del conocimiento en ambientes híbridos se define por las relaciones intersubjetivas entre los sujetos pedagógicos, en sesiones síncronas y asíncronas. Asimismo, se destacó la importancia de la argumentación y el conflicto sociocognitivo en la construcción colectiva del conocimiento.

Authors: Vaara Jaakko , Terho Erkki O.
Published: January 2025

Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli Pohjois-Savon tuberkuloosipiirin alueella selvittää, mitkä lääketieteelliset tai sosiaaliset tekijät ovat saattaneet myötävaikuttaa alle 30- vuotiaiden henkilöiden sairastumiseen keuhkotuberkuloosiin 1.1.1972 - 31.12.1975 välisen  aikana.
Kriteerin täyttäviä keuhkotuberkuloosipotilaita oli 133 henkilöä, joista 50% miehiä. Aineiston keski-ikä sairastumishetkellä oli 22 vuotta. Valtaosa kuului kolmeen alimpaan sosiaaliryhmään. 65% :lla oli positiivinen ysköksen tb-viljely ja lisäksi 17 %:lla värjäys positiivinen. Basillikannan resistenssiä todettiin kahdeksalla prosentilla. 46 %:lla sairaus oli I astetta (minimal) ja 39 %:lla II astetta (moderately advanced), 15 %:lla 111 astetta (far advanced). Veriyskää, muiden elinten tuberkuloosia ym. komplikaatioita oli viidesosalla potilaista. Seitsemällä prosentilla oli mukana jokin muu komplisoiva sairaus.
Viidellä prosentilla esiintyi alkoholin liikakäyttöä tai epäsosiaalisuutta.
93 % oli BCG-rokotettu vastasyntyneinä. 11 %:lla havaittiin aiemmissa thorax-kuvissa keuhkon parenkyymiarpi ja 88 %:lla oli tavanomaiset hiluskalkkeumat kuvan ollessa muutoin normaalin, yhdellä prosentilla todettiin arven ja pleurakamaran kombinaatio. Kolmannes tapauksista todettiin joukkopienoiskuvauksissa ja kolmannes yleissairaaloissa. Lähes puolella oli oireita.
29 %:lla oli todettu tuberkuloosia ympäristössään viimeisien vuosien ai kana, kumminkin tartunnan mahdollisuus katsottiin vähäiseksi. 81%: lle koko aineistosta oli suoritettu tuberkuliinikoe, 99 % näistä reagoi voimakkaasti tuberkuliinille ja vain yksi henkilö oli sille kielteisesti reagoiva. Valtaosa potilaista hoidettiin nykyaikaisilla lääkeyhdistelmillä.
Tutkimus antaa viitteitä siihen , että alle 30-vuotiaan henkilön tuberkuloosin aiheuttajan lienee harvoin eksogeeninen reinfektio.
Editorial: Institutional Repository of the Kyiv Medical University: A New Open Access Database for Authors and Peer-Reviewed Journals
Authors: Tymofieiev Oleksii , Fesenko Ievgen , Serha Olena
Published: January 2025

Open access repository is a database, or a virtual archive established to collect, disseminate and preserve scientific output like scientific articles and datasets and to make them freely available. An institutional repository is one of four types of repositories. The purposes of this article are (1) to highlight the most important points of the Regulation on the Institutional Repository of the Kyiv Medical University (IRKMU) and (2) to explain the advantages for authors and peer-reviewed journals of colonization of the repository of such type. Also, this paper highlights the experience of the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and the Journal of Diagnostics and Treatment of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology (JDTOMP) in depositing peer-reviewed articles in this repository. The Regulation on the IRKMU was put into effect by Order No. 29 of January 26, 2024. In the same year, all structural units of the university, including dental departments, joined the process of depositing their scientific and clinical works. The IRKMU was created using the open-source software DSpace, which supports the Open Access Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) data exchange protocol, allowing the repository to be integrated into the international registers of the Registry of Open Access Repositories (ROAR), Directory of Open Access Repositories (OpenDOAR), and other search engines. The article is reinforced with screenshots of the stages of depositing data of scientific works. Carlile Butterfield and colleagues (2022) emphasized, that despite all benefits, however, their research indicates that it can be difficult to encourage all faculties to upload the research reports onto the institutional repository. Moreover, the authors propose a potential route to maximize the number of publications that are uploaded to a university institutional repository. They utilize student workers and the resources of the institutional repository manager to get materials uploaded. The experience of our department consists in attracting a competent editor from the editorial staff of the JDTOMP with appropriate payment for services. In sum, colonizing this new institutional repository as a new database, authors and peer-reviewed journals can and will increase the visibility of their publications. Thus, it can bear fruit in terms of increasing the citation of articles and the journals as well.
Between Fun and Politics: Dimensions of Contemporary Children’s Theater in Poland
Authors: Baluch Wojciech
Published: January 2025

My article considers the functions and consequences of introducing a political dimension to children’s theater within the framework of school and out-of-school pedagogy. The main issue from the field of pedagogy is the impact of such theater on the formation of subjectivity of preschool and school children.
In the first part of the article, I present selected classical concepts of human subjectivity and discuss pedagogical concepts of the function of theater in the education of the child. Looking at these concepts from the perspective of the child’s subjectivity and from the perspective of political aspects in children’s theater, I point out the connections between the three key concepts of my considerations, which are subjectivity, pedagogy, and politicity in theater for children. At the same time, I highlight those dimen- sions of them where they come into conflict with each other.
In the analytical part, I discuss three two selected children’s plays and drama for children. Using their examples, I try to prove that children’s subjectivity does not grow out of the past, nor is it the result of speculation in metaphysical or ethical space, which is characteristic of adults, but is the result of actions to produce their imaginary world. Thus, children’s subjectivity is based less on difference, creating a value that is more affective and communal than individualistic.

A INCLUSÃO COMO NECESSIDADE DO NEOLIBERALISMO E OS PROCESSOS DE IN/EXCLUSÃO NA ESCOLA
Authors: Noya Carolina Pereira
Published: January 2025

Esta escrita é uma escolha por assumir os riscos de colocar sob suspeita o que vem sendo produzido nos discursos oficiais a favor da inclusão escolar. É uma breve análise das recorrências discursivas de documentos oficiais que têm como centralidade a defesa da educação inclusiva. Toma os documentos oficiais como produtos e produtores de significados sobre a inclusão e a escola inclusiva, que operam na lógica do neoliberalismo como modo de vida. Buscando problematizar a inclusão como uma necessidade do neoliberalismo e seus efeitos nos processos de in/exclusão escolar, a analítica teve por inspiração os Estudos Foucaultianos em Educação, a partir do pensamento pós-estruturalista. Na sociedade neoliberal, é preciso governar a todos, de modo que todos tenham condições de participar do jogo colocado pela lógica da concorrência. Para concorrer é preciso estar incluído. Nesse cenário, é que defende-se um exercício de problematização, que faça suspeitar dos acontecimentos dados por naturais, tais como a superação da exclusão com o advento dos movimentos mundiais de inclusão escolar. E com isso, denunciar práticas escolares que, ao capturar a diferença, estão mais alinhadas com o sustentar da norma que exclui, do que de fato, estão ocupadas em investir em práticas escolares inclusivas.
INSTITUTO MÃOS DE OURO: o ensino de Libras para crianças surdas e ouvintes em Breves – Pará
Authors: Balieiro Fabrício Martins , Mota Carina da Silva
Published: January 2025

Este artigo apresenta as ações do Instituto Mãos de Ouro em Breves, Pará, voltadas para o ensino da Libras, com o objetivo de reduzir a marginalização de crianças surdas no acesso à educação. Além disso, analisa a importância da cultura e identidade surda na comunidade local, explorando a relação entre a cultura surda e a cultura ouvinte, e contextualiza os direitos das pessoas surdas ao longo do tempo. Essa população enfrentou a negação de direitos e foi historicamente controlada por aristocracias que não reconheciam suas necessidades. A falta de representatividade levou à formação de grupos que lutaram por direitos fundamentais, incluindo a valorização da língua de sinais, essencial para a comunicação e expressão da identidade surda. O estudo, com abordagem qualitativa e bibliográfica inspirada na etnografia, concentrou-se em estudantes surdos do Instituto Mãos de Ouro. A pesquisa utilizou métodos como observação participante, diário de campo e fotografias para coletar dados. Os resultados indicaram que os artefatos culturais dos surdos, como a língua de sinais e as artes visuais, não são adequadamente contemplados na escola analisada. Isso evidencia a necessidade de um olhar mais atento à inclusão e à valorização das expressões culturais surdas no ambiente educacional. O trabalho visa desmistificar paradigmas preconceituosos e promover uma compreensão mais ampla sobre a educação para surdos, ressaltando a importância de uma abordagem que respeite e valorize a cultura e identidade dessa comunidade.
PRÁTICAS INCLUSIVAS NA EDUCAÇÃO ESPECIAL: o papel do intérprete de Libras na mediação escolar
Authors: Lima José Valdir de Souza , Lima Aline Karina Barbosa da Silva
Published: January 2025

Este estudo investiga o papel essencial do intérprete de Libras na inclusão de estudantes surdos no ensino regular, destacando sua atuação como mediador cultural e educacional. Além de traduzir conteúdos, o intérprete facilita a comunicação entre alunos surdos, professores e colegas ouvintes, promovendo a valorização da cultura surda e o desenvolvimento de práticas pedagógicas inclusivas. A pesquisa examina as políticas públicas, como a Lei nº 10.436/2002 e o Decreto nº 5.626/2005, que regulamentam o uso da Libras no sistema educacional brasileiro. Embora essas políticas tenham contribuído para avanços significativos, ainda existem desafios, especialmente relacionados à formação continuada de intérpretes e sua integração no ambiente escolar. Estudos apontam que os intérpretes precisam de capacitação contínua para atuar como mediadores no processo de ensino-aprendizagem, indo além da tradução linguística. O reconhecimento da cultura surda nas escolas é crucial para que a inclusão seja plena e respeite a identidade linguística dos estudantes surdos. O estudo conclui que a revisão dos currículos de formação de professores e intérpretes, com ênfase na educação bilíngue e na valorização da cultura surda, é fundamental para promover uma educação verdadeiramente inclusiva. Além disso, o fortalecimento das políticas públicas e o investimento na formação conjunta de intérpretes e professores são apontados como essenciais para o sucesso dessa inclusão.

Does CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference) fit the expectation: Voices from the classroom
Authors: Dwinalida Khairunnisa , Muflihah  , Maulia Bunga Putri
Published: January 2025

The CEFR, known globally as a key framework for structuring English language curricula, has been adopted in many educational systems worldwide. However, despite its widespread recognition, its practical application within Indonesian universities has not gained the same level of traction, remaining relatively limited compared to other regions. This difference has attracted scholarly interest, leading to research exploring the framework's applicability and potential adaptation. The research investigated how students view the fit between the framework and their expectations of the competencies of English teacher training graduates. To gather numerical data on students’ perceptions, a targeted sample of 94 participants completed a questionnaire developed based on C1-level CEFR descriptors. Complementing the quantitative data, semi-structured interviews were conducted with a subset of respondents to gather richer qualitative insights into their perceptions. Analysis of the quantitative data, including calculating the average score, showed a generally positive student perception of CEFR, with an average score of 3.78. Qualitative analysis of the interview data identified four key reasons for student agreement with the CEFR descriptors: alignment with job requirements, usefulness as communication tools, the reflection of the community expectations, and potential to support their learning. The findings imply that the stakeholders must specify the curriculum framework in which CEFR adoption can be an option. Based on these findings, it is implied that stakeholders responsible for curriculum development should specify a clearly defined framework within which CEFR adoption can be effectively implemented.

This study was a survey research with a quantitative and qualitative approach. The data were collected through an interview questionnaire via Google form from 39 pre-service English teachers now studying at STAIN Bengkalis. The result showed that pre-service English teachers have positive perceptions on the use of social media in teaching English. It can be seen from the finding that 38 out of 39 respondents would like to use social media when they become teachers in the future. In their perception, WhatsApp, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook are the most useful social media to be used in teaching English. Incorporating social media into education have some benefits, such as: encompassing enhanced comprehension, greater student self-sufficiency, boosted enthusiasm, efficiency in terms of costs, and the promotion of innovation among teachers. Nevertheless, it is important to recognize the hurdles associated with ensuring dependable internet access, fostering digital literacy, fostering creativity when designing lessons, and effectively managing how students utilize these resources. Findings from this study strengthen the fact that social media must be used in teaching and learning process and urge faculty to preparing future teachers with satisfied ability to use information technology or social media in teaching.

Urgensi Mencapai Insan Kamil di Zaman Modern
Authors: Wiwaha Kurnia Sari
Published: January 2025

Ibnu ‘Arabi adalah salah salah satu tokoh sufi terkenal yang banyak mendapat pengaruh dari filsafat paripatetik. Hal ini yang menjadi kelebihan dari Ibnu ‘Arabi yaitu dapat menjelaskan pengalaman mistiknya secara rasional filosofis. Salah satu ajaran yang paling terkenal adalah Insan Kamil. Insan Kamil perwujudan manusia sempurna dari segi jasmani dan rohani baik dari segi perwujudannya maupun pengetahuannya. Kesempurnaan ini merupakan manifestasi sempurna dari segala sifat dan nama Tuhan. Ketercapaian Insan Kamil pada tiap individu manusia sebagai makhluk yang berlogika adalah sebuah kebutuhan sebab manusia adalah figur sentral dalam dunia pengetahuan. Dari latar belakang tersebut, penulis ingin meneliti konsep Insan Kamil yang dikemukakan oleh Ibnu ‘Arabi ini yang kemudian akan dihubungkan dengan karakter wajib yang perlu dimiliki oleh manusia kontemporer. Untuk mencapai hal tersebut, penulis menggunakan penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi pustaka. Penulis akan meneliti literatur-literatur yang berhubungan dengan pemikiran Ibnu’Arabi ini dan kompetensi seorang akademisi. Dari hasil analisisnya penulis mendapatkan bahwasanya Insan Kamil yang merupakan perwujudan sempurna dari citra Tuhan memiliki pengaruh pada watak, kepribadian dan karakter yang menuju pada perwujudan yang baik.

Цель работы – оценка экспрессии тканевых маркеров E-box-связывающего белка гомеобокс 1 «цинкового пальца», белка «цинковых пальцев» 1, белка «цинковых пальцев» 2 в эутопическом и эктопическом эндометрии у пациентов с различными формами эндометриоза с помощью иммуногистохимического метода. В исследование были включены 30 пациентов женского пола в возрасте от 31 до 40 лет. Основную группу составили 20 пациентов с перитонеальным эндометриозом (n = 10) и глубоким инфильтративным эндометриозом (n = 10). В группу сравнения вошли 10 женщин без эндометриоза (пациенты с серозными цистаденомами яичников). Оценку уровня экспрессии транскрипционных факторов эпителиально-мезенхимального перехода проводили с использованием иммуногистохимического метода и определением индекса H-score. При изучении показателя интенсивности окрашивания E-box-связывающего белка гомеобокс 1 «цинкового пальца» в эндометрии было выявлено, что уровень экспрессии в группе пациентов с перитонеальным эндометриозом и глубоким инфильтративным эндометриозом был статистически значимо выше относительно группы контроля. В образцах перитонеальных гетеротопий и глубокого инфильтративного эндометриоза уровень экспрессии E-box-связывающего белка гомеобокс 1 «цинкового пальца» был также значительно повышен по сравнению с результатами в группе контроля. Аналогичные данные были получены при изучении экспрессии белков «цинковых пальцев» 1 и 2. Таким образом, повышенные уровни транскрипционных факторов эпителиально-мезенхимального перехода в эутопическом и эктопическом эндометрии указывают на активацию процесса эпителиально-мезенхимального перехода, обеспечивающего инвазивный потенциал эндометриоидных гетеротопий при эндометриозе. Исследование поддержано Правительством РФ. Работа выполнена в рамках государственного задания ФГБУ «НМИЦ АГП им. В.И. Кулакова» Минздрава России (№ 122020900125-8).

The wound dressing market is now filled with various products designed to treat different types of wounds. Choosing the proper dressing alone is crucial to the wound healing process. However, with so many options available, identifying and selecting the most appropriate dressing can be challenging for healthcare professionals - doctors, nurses, pharmacists and medical staff - as well as non-professional users and pharmacy customers. This study aims to provide an overview of the properties and characteristics of the most commonly used dressings available on the market. Specifically, dressings were tested for their vapour transmission rate, free swelling absorption capacity and mechanical properties.
Implementation of blockchain-based document management system for higher education organizations
Authors: Pondkule Pooja M. , Kothari Sonali
Published: January 2025

Blockchain is revolutionizing various industries, from healthcare to real estate, by making existing systems and processes transparent, secure, and efficient. New application scenarios include adopting smart contracts and decentralized frameworks in education and healthcare, which are seen as promising answers to longstanding problems such as security, credibility, and operational inefficiency. Blockchain’s decentralized and transparent nature offers a significant improvement in the handling of educational documents. Traditional verification methods for academic qualifications or credentials are cumbersome, slow, and often fraud-prone. To ensure the authenticity of academic records, blockchain provides unalterable records that are recorded on ‘the chain’ once and cannot be amended. Therefore, each transaction or update of a student’s academic history can be found and verified, thereby providing transparency and dependability throughout all stages of the verification process.

Several blockchain-based educational projects have already revealed their potential. Initiatives focused on building decentralized knowledge platforms and secure digital student identity cards or resume and credentials verification networks offer hope. These platforms prevent fraud and handiness for students: all grade details are kept permanently in their hands. With blockchain, students have a comprehensive and portable record of their education, job skills, and qualifications that can be downloaded this second to potential employers or hearings. The same documents provide students with independence and mobility since their certificates are not tied to a single institution or territory.

Blockchain further promotes cooperation between all stakeholders in education, like teachers making decisions, policymakers, or executives who run businesses. Through a wholly transparent and open system to all parties, Blockchain reduces the dependence on intermediaries often found in traditional process management methods, with speed and cost savings benefits. Moreover, in handling crucial information such as that held on student grades and personal details, blockchain’s secure data management provides a very real protection against unauthorized access or breaches.

Published: January 2025

To address the challenges of detecting internal damage in steel wire rope core conveyors and the difficulties in quantitative identification, this study proposes an improved backpropagation (BP) neural network damage identification algorithm based on the Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO-BP). The Grey Wolf algorithm is employed to optimize the initial weights and thresholds of the BP neural network, thereby enhancing its performance and stability. A testing apparatus for detecting damage in steel wire rope core conveyors is designed and constructed to evaluate the algorithm's effectiveness and feasibility. First, damage signal data from the steel wire rope are extracted and normalized to facilitate the convergence of the predictive model. Next, the BP neural network algorithm is optimized to address issues such as parameter selection randomness, improving model training speed and identification accuracy. Experimental results indicate that the optimized BP algorithm achieves an average identification accuracy of 96.0%, representing a 5.5% improvement over the unoptimized BP algorithm and significantly enhancing the precision of damage quantitative identification.

Published: January 2025

This study focuses on the development and investigation of sustainable and lightweight cellulosebased hybrid reinforced epoxy composites. The research contributes to the ongoing efforts to create
durable and biodegradable composite materials for automotive applications. The hybrid composites
were fabricated using a hand layup approach, combining sisal/dombeya fiber with paper particles
as reinforcements in an epoxy matrix. Prior to incorporation, the fibers underwent mercerization to
reduce hydrophilicity. Hybrid composites with 3-15 wt% reinforcements were produced. Mechanical
properties, including tensile, flexural, impact, and hardness, were evaluated, and scanning electron
microscopy (SEM) was used to examine the surface morphology of fractured composites. Wear
resistance, density, and water absorption were also studied. Results demonstrated significant
improvements in all properties compared to the unreinforced epoxy matrix. Notably, composites with
9-12 wt% sisal fiber-paper particles (SF-PP) exhibited optimal mechanical properties. Flexural
modulus, hardness, tensile and impact strengths were 721 MPa, 67 HS, 32.94 MPa and 46.24 kJ/m2,
respectively from 9 wt.% while flexural strength and tensile modulus were of 57.30 MPa and 438.21
MPa, respectively from 12 wt.%. On the other hand, the composite reinforced with 12 wt% dombeya
fiber-paper particles (DF-PP) demonstrated superior wear resistance. DF-PP-based composites
exhibited low moisture absorptivity and density compared to SF-PP. Conclusively, the study
recommends epoxy-based composites reinforced with hybrid sisal fiber and paper particles for
automotive components like bumpers and dashboards, while composites reinforced with hybrid
dombeya fiber and paper particles are suitable for battery enclosures and wheel covers.
