Abstract
In this study, test specimens of nanocomposites were produced through Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding process, VARTM. By using Epoxy as substrate, test specimens of Nanocomposites were prepared as multiple layers of carbon fibers, clay and carbon nanotube. The carbon fibers are featured in high strength and high thermal conductive. Also, the clay and the carbon nanotube have outstanding nature of strength.To explore the hardness, stress, strain and friction of nanocomposites, various experiments were used in this study, including mechanical hardness test, tensile test and pin on disc bench test. With optimized amount of additives, physical properties of the material, including hardness, tensile strength have increased by 94 % and 111 %. Dry friction is also decreased with the increase of mechanical properties.
