The Effect of Prestressing on Mechanical Properties of Unidirectional Carbon Epoxy Laminate Composites
Original language description
The prestressing of fibre-reinforced composite is a promising technique for improving its mechanical performance. This can be achieved by introducing a controlled tensile force to the fibre prior to curing in a polymer matrix. This study develops an elastically prestressed polymer matrix composite by applying a prestressing level of up to 25 MPa to unidirectional carbon epoxy laminates. The influence of fibre prestressing on the mechanical properties of the laminates is observed by performing flexural and tensile tests. The result shows a successful approach toward producing elastically prestressed carbon fibre-reinforced epoxy composite with high mechanical properties compared to the non-prestressed counterpart. Also, increasing the prestressing level increased the strength and elastic modulus of the composite.
