Mechanical Properties of a Carbon Fabric–Reinforced Epoxy Composite with Carbon Nanotubes and a Flame Retardant
Original language description
The purpose of this paper is to present the mechanical and morphological characterization of new multifunctional Carbon-Fibre Reinforced Composites (CFRCs) that are able to overcome two of the main drawbacks of aeronautical composite materials: a) reduced electrical conductivity and b) poor flame resistance. Multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and Glycidyl POSS (GPOSS) were used to simultaneously enhance electrical conductivity and flame resistance. The effect of these two combined components on the mechanical and morphological properties of the manufactured CFRCs was analysed. The mechanical properties were decreased by no more than 10% by combined influence of CNTs and GPOSS. Agglomerates of CNTs were observed using scanning electron microscopy. The agglomerates were large enough to be visible to the naked eye as black spots on the delaminated fracture surface. The decrease of the mechanical properties could be caused by these agglomerates or by a changed fibre volume content that was affected by the difficult infusion procedure due to high resin viscosity.
