摘要
The piezoresistive responses of the composites fabricated by short-cut carbon fiber mat and epoxy resin were studied by uniaxial tension tests. Positive piezoresistive effect of this composite was found in the test. The gauge factor for single-lamina carbon fiber mat/epoxy resin composite is as high as 13.9, but the resistance for this composite is observed to be decreased gradually. More stable piezoresistivity was attained in laminated composite and the gauge factors were observed to decrease with the increase of the number of the laminas. The gauge factor for 5-lamina carbon fiber mat/epoxy resin composite is 5.7. The improvement in stability and the decrease in gauge factor for the laminated composite are due to the solid conductive network of this composite. The laminated carbon fiber mat/epoxy resin composites were used as smart layers on the beam surfaces, and based on their piezoresistivities, the structural deformation monitoring upon cyclic load and the damage detecting upon monotonous load were conducted ©, 2015, Journal of Functional Materials.
