Abstract

The paper presents the results obtained in the study of the joint strength between polymer matrix and high performance polyethylene fiber. The fiber/matrix joints simulate the unit cell of the fiber‐reinforced composite materials. Effect of heat treatment on the composite properties at the interface was estimated by a multifilament wet‐pull‐out method. It was found that the joint strength may be increased with the help of extra heart treatment. Both the energy to peak load and the energy to failure for CM joints at various stages of loading were determined.
