摘要：
This study examined the processing and mechanical properties of cross-ply and quasi-isotropic composite laminates processed using aligned multi-walled carbon nanotube/epoxy prepreg sheets. Three kinds of CNT/epoxy laminates, ([0 degrees/9 degrees]s, [60 degrees/0 degrees/-60 degrees]s, [0 degrees/45 degrees/90 degrees/-45 degrees]s) were successfully fabricated using aligned CNT/epoxy prepreg sheets. The CNT volume fraction was approximately 10%. No visible void or delamination was observed in composite laminates, and the thickness of each layer was almost equal to that of the prepreg. To evaluate the elastic moduli, E-11, E-22, and G(12), of each ply in the laminates, on -axis and off -axis tensile tests (0 degrees, 45 degrees, 90 degrees) were conducted of aligned CNT/epoxy lamina specimens. The Young's modulus of CNT/epoxy cross-ply and quasi-isotropic laminates agreed with the theoretical values, which were calculated using classical laminate theory and elastic moduli of CNT/epoxy lamina. The respective failure strains of [0 degrees/90 degrees]s, [60 degrees/0 degrees/-60 degrees]s, and [0 degrees/45 degrees/90 degrees/-45 degrees]s laminates are 0.65, 0.92, 0.63%, which are higher than that of 0 degrees composite lamina (0.5%). Results suggest that the failure strain of 0 degrees layer in composite laminates is improved because of the other layers.
