Abstract
Multiscale multiphysics in structural batteries make mechanical property testing difficult. In this research, the effect of electrolyte-coating on the mechanical performance of carbon fabric was studied using a suitable mechanical test method for structural batteries. For this experiment, two types of specimens were determined their dimension according to ASTM. One type of specimen was smaller than the standard dimension. The specimens were coated by spreading the electrolyte material on carbon fabric, hardened using epoxy, and tested for tensile properties using universal testing machine. As a result, it was found that the mechanical properties of carbon fabric were not influenced by electrolyte coating. In addition, the small-scale specimen used in this experiment was determined to be sufficiently reliable.
