| Popis: | The strength and modulus of elasticity of fiber-reinforced plastic composites are a function of the strength, modulus, volume content, and directional orientation of the fibers used in the composites. Continuous fibers are generally preferable to noncontinuous fibers because the continuous types are easier to align, impregnate with resin, and fabricate into large structures by filament-winding techniques. The principal function of the matrix in a composite is the transfer of loads between and among fibers. For plastic matrices both chemical adhesion of the matrix to the fibers and shrinkage of the matrix around the fibers are important factors in this load transfer. The structural efficiency of fibers in composites is usually determined by measuring mechanical properties of simple composite specimens containing known volume per cents of the fibers, and comparing the measured mechanical properties of the composites with those predicted analytically. |
