Popis: In this work, we aimed to manufacture and characterize carbon-fiber&ndash
polymer&ndash
metal-particles magnetic composites with a sandwichlike structure. The composites were manufactured by stacking the plain woven carbon fiber prepregs (or carbon-fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRP)) and layers of the FeSi particles. The layer of FeSi particles were formed by evenly distributing the FeSi powder on the surface of carbon fiber prepreg sheet. The composites were found to have better magnetic properties when the magnetic field were applied in in-plane (0°
) rather than in through-thickness (90°
), and the highest saturation magnetization of 149.71 A.m2/kg was achieved. The best inductance and permeability of 12.2 &mu
H and 13.08 were achieved. The composites obviously exhibited mechanical strength that was good but lower than that of CFRP composite. The lowest tensile strength and lowest flexural strength were 306.98 MPa and 855.53 MPa, which correspond to 39.58% and 59.83% of the tensile strength and flexural strength of CFRP (four layers), respectively.
