Synthesis and characterization of composite nanofibers with VARTM and Electrospinning process
Journal Title: Carbon - Science and Technology - Year 2013, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Fiber-reinforced polymer composites have made tremendous advancements in the technology of engineering materials. To manufacture advance composite, quantity and size of reinforcement and failure of the composites play the important role. From various methods of manufacturing composites ,Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding (VARTM) was found to have high fiber weight fraction which contributes to enhance the mechanical properties of the two phase or three phase nanocomposite, Here we have compared the VATRM and Hand Molding with three different material systems and found the enhanced tensile and flexural strength of two phase composite and manufactured TEOS nanofibers using electrospinning process as secondary reinforcement to improve the interlaminar delamination three phase nanocomposite.
