摘要
In the present work the effect of epoxy sizings on the fracture behavior of woven carbon fiber tetrafunctional epoxy composites has been investigated. Three-point flexural, short beam shear (SBS) and Mode-II interlaminar fracture toughness (ENF) tests have been carried out. Wettability and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) studies have been performed on commercial sized, desized and 0.7 wt% TGDDM and 0.7 wt% DGEBA sized carbon fibers. Dynamic mechanical thermal analysis and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) studies were also carried out on the different carbon fiber/epoxy composites. The used sizing treatments provided composites with improved mechanical properties due to the enhancement achieved in the fiber-matrix adhesion. (C) 2004 Society of Plastics Engineers.
