Effect of Different Layers of Glass Cloth on Carbon Fiber Reinforced Hybrid Composite Core

Abstract:

The effect of different layers of glass cloth on carbon fiber reinforced hybrid composite core is studied in this work. Carbon fiber reinforced hybrid composite of different glass cloth content is made by pultrusion processing. Three point bending test and charpy impact test are taken to evaluate the toughness of different composite, and scanning electronic micro-scopy (SEM) and photograph are carried out to characterize the structure of different composite after destroyed. It is shown that, though at the cost of drop of tensile strength, the increase of glass cloth content in carbon fiber reinforced hybrid composite core improves the flexural strength and impact resistant, and does not affect the microscope destroy pattern and the microscopic structure of failure samples.
