Abstract: In this research study the effect of reinforcement and moisture on impact strength of hybrid and single composites for epoxy resin (Quickmast 105) type where used Javanese redwood flour and Russian whitewood flour and glass powder and rock wool fibers as support material by volume fraction (20%) for all prepared models. The results shows an increase in values of impact strength of all supported models (single and hybrid) at laboratory conditions where a hybrid supported material (EP+RWF+GP) achieved the highest value of impact strength (8.2 kJ/m2) when the models submerged in normal water for different periods observed increase impact strength to all prepared models with increasing time of immersion except hybrid particulate composites that possessed low values of impact strength when the immersion (2 weeks) compared with the values in the laboratory conditions and then the impact strength values of these models rise with increasing time of immersion (4, 6, 8 week).
