THE RESULTS OF MULTI-LAYERED POLYMER COMPOSITE MATERIAL MECHANICAL TESTING COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS
The mechanical properties of polymer composite materials used in shipbuilding are examined in this article. The samples from polymer composite materials based on glass fibers and polyester resin were made for this purpose. The manufacturing samples technique from polymer composite materials for mechanical test operation is represented here. The influence of woven roving fabric layers number ratio to the number of glass-fiber mat layers under testing samples for expansion, compression and 3 point bending has been determined by mechanical tests method. As the data processing result obtained in the experiment course it has been determined that the number of woven roving fabric layers increase with polymer composite materials increases the breaking load and tensile ultimate strength and decreases these values under compression and 3 point bending. The results obtained in this article are the basis for identifying polymer composite materials mechanical properties with different reinforcement schemes in case of their application in ship structures such as a material for transport vessels superstructure .
