Before And After

The significance of composite materials and their applications are mainly due to their good properties. This imposes the need for their recycling, thus extending their lifetime. Once used composite material will be disposed as a waste at the end of it service life. After recycling, this kind of waste can be used as raw materials for the production of same material, which raises their applicability. This indicates a great importance of recycling as a method of the renowal of composite materials. This study represents a contribution to the field of mechanical properties of the recycled composite materials. The tension mechanical properties (tensile strength and modulus of elasticity) of once used and disposed glass-epoxy composite material were compared before and after the recycling. The obtained results from mechanical tests confirmed that the applied recycling method was suitable for glass-epoxy composite materials. In respect to the tensile strength and modulus of elasticity it can be further assessed the possibility of use of recycled glass-epoxy composite materials.

This research Investigates the new composite materials are fabricated of two or more materials raised. The fibers material from the sources of natural recycled materials provides certain benefits above synthetic strengthening material given that very less cost, equivalent strength, less density, and the slightest discarded difficulties. In the current experiments, silk and fiber-reinforced epoxy composite material is fabricated and the mechanical properties for the composite materials are assessed. New composite materials samples with the dissimilar fiber weight ratio were made utilizing the compression Molding processes with the pressure of 150 pa at a temperature of 80 °C. All samples were exposed to the mechanical test like a tensile test, impact loading, flexural hardness, and microscopy. The performing results are the maximum stress is 33.4MPa, elastic modulus for the new composite material is 1380 MPa, and hardness value is 20.64 Hv for the material resistance to scratch, SEM analysis of the microstructure of new composite materials with different angles of layers that are more strength use in industrial applications.

A series of tensile, compression and shear tests were carried out on carbon-epoxy composite materials to evaluate their mechanical properties. The experiments were set upin accordance with ASTM standards that best corresponded to the test specifications. Specimens were categorized into groups according to their dimensions and shape. Based on testing requirements, some were cut into rectangular and others into dog bone specimens to determine the effects of stress concentration. A number of specimens were reinforced at both ends by means of tabs which were bonded on both faces to reduce the effects of the external pressure exerted on them through the grips of the testing machines, and the rest of them were tested without any reinforcement tabs. All the specimens were tested until failure. Load, elongation (displacement) and strain data were recorded by means of strain gages and data acquisition systems. The experimental results obtained from similar tests on different groups are compared to examine the conformity of the results regardless of dimension and geometry, and are also verified by Finite Element Analysis (FEA). In addition, FEA is used to study different conditions, such as geometry, that could affect the final results. The experimental data are analyzed and effects of fiber direction on failure method are studied. It was concluded that shape and geometry factors as well as fiber direction influenced the failure method. The work, however, is still in progress and tests under conditions, such as elevated temperature, will be conducted to study other effects on the mechanical properties of 3D woven carbon-epoxy composites.

Carbon Fibre Composites

The use of composite material in engineering field is increasing day by day. Composite materials are largely replacing conventional metals nowadays due to their mechanical behaviours. Among all composite materials carbon fibre reinforced composites are of greater interest due to their high strength. There are several new developments made in carbon fibre composites like carbon nanotubes, carbon black etc.. in order to increase the composite strength. In this research, we are going to analyse the strength of the carbon fibre reinforced epoxy composite by using graphite powder as an additive material because of its negligible weight and hardness nature. Generally, composites were prepared by hand layup process. Specifically the tensile, the flexural and the impact properties are taken into the consideration. Three different specimens are prepared and tested for the above strengths. The first specimen is carbon fibre epoxy composite without any addition of graphite powder (filler material). The second one is carbon composite with 5% addition of graphite powder as a filler material and the last specimen is of carbon fibre composite with 10% addition of graphite powder. The above mentioned strengths are calculated for each specimen with the help of a Universal Testing Machine and Impact Tester. Specimen 3 shows greater strengths whereas Specimen 1 shows least strength among all the three specimens. The inclusion of graphite powder in the carbon composite shows increase in the mechanical properties of the resulting specimens.
