Abstract | ||||
ABSTRACT In the present investigation two types of thermoset resins (epoxy and phenol formaldehyde resin) were used with carbon fiber (CF) to produce composite materials. CF/epoxy resin and CF/phenolformaldhyde resin composite were fabricated by hand lay-up technique with ratio 1:1 by weight (CF:resin matrix). The mechanical properties of the two produced resin such as compression, tension and flexural were evaluated. The influence of increase of number of layers of fibers on the mechanical properties of composite material based on CF/epoxy resin has been studied. The result show that the flexural strength of CF/epoxy resin composite is higher by 52% than the flexural strength of CF/phenolformaldhydr resin composite. The result of flexural as number of layers increased by two layers increased by 11.5%. | ||||
