Carbon Fibre Reinforced Epoxy Composites Using Out of Autoclave Process

By Feroz Shaik

A composites material is defined as macroscopic combination of two or more elements, also known as phase, to produce materials with aggregate properties unique from those of their constituents. One of the phases is the 'reinforcement', which provides strength and stiffness to the material, whereas the weaker phase is 'matrix', which aids in the transfer of applied loads to the Fibres while safeguarding the Fibres from the external environment improving the durability. 'Interphase' is an additional phase that exists between the two. These materials could be developed to have the best combination of features for a given application. As a result of these motives, composites play a significant role in a number of industries, including aerospace, automobile and sports.

Fibres, flakes and particles can all be used as composite reinforcements. The most prevalent component in composite materials, fibres do have a substantial influence on their characteristics. Composite components in a variety of shapes may be processed and manufactured using various processes due to the wide surface area between the length and diameter of the fibres, which permits effective shear stress transmission in both the matrix and the fibres. Polymer matrix composites have been reinforced with a variety of fibres. For years, glass fibre, carbon fibre, aramid fibre and boron fibre have been utilised as reinforcement.
