Abstract
Aircrafts and cars are made of composites to lighten their weight. Glass fiber reinforced composites due to their high specific strength and specific stiffness have become attractive structural materials. Room temperature cured epoxy was impregnated with Carbon fiber in order to synthesis composites. Carbon fiber is taken in the 3, 5, 7 % weight in order to suspend on epoxy resin with different fiber lengths such as 1, 2, and 3 cm. The variations of mechanical and thermal properties on Carbon fiber–epoxy composites with different fiber lengths have been studied. Thermal properties such as TGA and DSC are studied to investigate the influence of change in fiber length on Carbon fiber– epoxy composites. Significant improvement in tensile and flexural strengths of Carbon fiber–epoxy composites has been observed by the different lengths of the fiber. The results that by taking epoxy 95 % and carbon fiber 5 % as constant with different fiber lengths were increased the mechanical and thermal properties compared with different fiber content in weight percentage. The lengths of the fiber are influenced on the improvement of tensile, flexural, and morphology properties.
