The impact of MWCNT on the mechanical characteristics of glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites is the focus of the current investigation. The fabrication technique includes hand layup molding, ultrasonication, and magnetic stirring to prepare the MWCNT/epoxy/fiber multi-phase composites. Samples were cut and cured using the appropriate post-processing to get them ready for mechanical characterizations in compliance with ASTM standards. Furthermore, the mechanical properties improved with the inclusion of MWCNT. In comparison with pure GFRP, the tensile strength of GFRP composites adding 0.1% and 0.2% MWCNT increased by 6.2% and 21%, respectively. As seen in the morphological fractography, improvements in the interfacial adhesion between the glass fiber and the new matrix provided additional support for the results.

摘要

The impact of MWCNT on the mechanical characteristics of glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites is the focus of the current investigation. The fabrication technique includes hand layup molding, ultrasonication, and magnetic stirring to prepare the MWCNT/epoxy/fiber multi-phase composites. Samples were cut and cured using the appropriate post-processing to get them ready for mechanical characterizations in compliance with ASTM standards. Furthermore, the mechanical properties improved with the inclusion of MWCNT. In comparison with pure GFRP, the tensile strength of GFRP composites adding 0.1% and 0.2% MWCNT increased by 6.2% and 21%, respectively. As seen in the morphological fractography, improvements in the interfacial adhesion between the glass fiber and the new matrix provided additional support for the results.
