The composites were fabricated using vacuum infusing molding. Dispersion of graphene nanoplatelets was done using bath sonicator and mechanical stirring. The physical and mechanical properties were examined according to ASTM standards. Results showed that there was a significant improvement in tensile and flexural properties by the addition of 0.25 of graphene nanoplatelets in the glass/epoxy composite. Tensile strength and modulus were enhanced by 27.62 and 41.26 , respectively. Flexural strength and modulus have been improved by around 27.62 and 41.26 , respectively. Graphene platelets can be hybridized with glass/epoxy composite to improve the mechanical performance. © 2021 Author(s). publisher: American Institute of Physics Inc. date: 2021 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed identifier: Malik, K. and Ahmad, F. and Yunus, N.A. and Yusoff, P.S.M.M. and Guan, B. and Nosbi, N. and Ali, S. and Nakato, T. and Mouri, E.
