A Study on the Development of the Next Generation Composite Materials(Hybrid Composites with Non-Woven Tissue)

차세대 복합재료의 개발에 관한 연구(부직포 삽입형 하이브리드 복합재료)

To improve the properties of FRP composite materials, the hybrid prepreg with non-woven tissue (NWT) is developed. The hybrid prepreg consists of undirectional prepreg and NWT prepreg. The NWT prepreg is made by compounding the NWT and polymer resin, which is similar to the production method of FRP prepreg. The NWT has short fibers which are discretely distributed with in-plane random orientation. The stiffness and strength of NWT composites are lower than those of continuously fibrous composites. The strengthening technique and fabricating technique for the hybrid prepreg are described in this work. The mechanical characteristics of hybrid composites with NWT are discussed and compared with those of the FRP composites.
