A study has been made of the effect of thermal spiking on the strength and thermomechanical behaviour of Fibredux 914C/T300 and Fibredux 914C/XAS carbon fibre reinforced plastic materials. The unidirectional material was aged in a hot humid atmosphere before thermally spiking up to 130°C. The thermomechanical behaviour was measured using the torsion pendulum technique and interlaminar shear, compression, and transverse tensile tests at room temperature and 120°C. Shear strength was measured by short beam bending. The static and dynamic values obtained were found to be independent of the spiking cycle but strongly dependent on the amount of absorbed moisture. At the test temperature of 120°C, the interlaminar shear strength slightly decreased as spiking was done at 130°C. Microcracking and/or some unknown effects could be responsible for the observed small decrease in interlaminar shear values.

Influences of liquid elastomer additive on the behavior of short glass fiber reinforced epoxy Arikan, A; Kaynak, Cevdet; Tincer, T (Wiley, 2002-10-01) In this study, improvements in mechanical and thermal behavior of short glass fiber (GF) reinforced diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A (DGEBA) based epoxy with hydroxyl terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) modification have been studied. A silane coupling agent (SCA) with a rubber reactive group was also used to improve the interfacial adhesion between glass fibers and an epoxy matrix. 10, 20, and 30 wt% GF reinforced composite specimens were prepared with and without silane coupling agent treatment of fibers and a...
Effect of CNTs dispersion on electrical, mechanical and strain sensing properties of CNT/epoxy nanocomposites Tanabi, Hamed; Erdal Erdoğmuş, Merve (Elsevier BV, 2019-03-01) The remarkable electrical and mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) render CNT-reinforced nanocomposites as potentially attractive materials for strain-sensing and monitoring purposes. The dispersion state of CNTs in polymeric matrix has a significant role on the physical and the mechanical properties of the resulting CNT reinforced nanocomposites. In this study, a series of experiments were designed to investigate the effect of dispersion process parameters and CNT concentration, as well as thei...
Effect of CNT impregnation on the mechanical and thermal properties of C/C-SiC composites Tulbez, Simge; ESEN, ZİYA; Dericioğlu, Arcan Fehmi (2020-06-01) The present study investigates the effect of additional carbon source, in the form of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), on mechanical and thermal properties of carbon fiber reinforced silicon carbide (C/C-SiC) ceramic matrix composites (CMC) produced by liquid silicon infiltration (LSI) technique. The CNTs used in this study were impregnated into the C/C preforms before the liquid silicon infiltration stage. The results showed that the addition of excess carbon to the C/C preforms in the form of CNTs enhanced Si inf...
Effect of carbon nanotube surface treatment on the morphology, electrical, and mechanical properties of the microfiber-reinforced polyethylene/poly(ethylene terephthalate)/carbon nanotube composites Yesil, Sertan; Bayram, Göknur (2013-01-15) The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of carbon nanotube (CNT) chemical properties, CNT content, and molding temperature on the morphology, electrical, and mechanical properties of the microfiber-reinforced polymer composites. These composites were prepared by extrusion and hot stretching the poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET)/CNT phase in high density polyethylene (HDPE) matrix. Surfaces of the CNT were modified by purification with strong acid mixture (HNO3 : H2SO4 mixture 1 : 1 by volume) f...
Effects of RTM mold temperature and vacuum on the mechanical properties of epoxy/glass fiber composite plates Kaynak, Cevdet; Isitman, Nihat Ali (2008-08-01) The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of mold temperature, application of vacuum at resin exit ports, and initial resin temperature on the mechanical properties of epoxy matrix woven glass fiber reinforced composite specimens produced by resin transfer molding (RTM). For this purpose, six mold temperatures (25, 40, 60, 80, 100, and 120 degrees C), two initial resin temperatures (15 and 28 degrees C), and vacuum (0.03 bar) and without vacuum (similar to 1 bar) conditions are utilized. Speci...
