Abstract

This study is focused on the influence of a modified matrix on glass fiber reinforced laminates, which inherently have different material properties than carbon fiber composites. For this study we modified the green epoxy resin with 2.5wt% of carbon based fillers (synthesized graphene nanopellets, and milled recycled carbon fibres), which were subsequently applied to the glass multifilaments, and vacuum cured to obtain fiber/epoxy UD laminates. The prepared samples were further tested on the mechanical, thermo-mechanical and electrical properties, to evaluate the filler influence on the studied type of glass/epoxy laminates. Aim of this work is to study the influence of carbon fillers on overall composite properties, and evaluate its applicability for the improvement of UD glass epoxy laminates without having to significantly change the weight of component and the technology of the composite production.
