Recently, natural fibers draw much interests in composite industry due to low cost, light weight, and environment-friendly characteristics compared with glass fibers. In this study, mechanical properties were evaluated for two extreme cases of jute fiber orientations, i.e. the unidirectional yarn composites and the felt fabric composites. Samples of jute fiber composites were fabricated by RTM process using epoxy resin, and tensile, compression, and shear tests were conducted. As can be expected, unidirectional fiber specimens in longitudinal direction showed the highest strength and modulus. Compared with glass/epoxy composites of the similar fabric architecture and fiber volume fraction, the tensile strength and modulus of jute felt/epoxy composites reached only 40% and 50% levels. However, the specific tensile strength and modulus increased to 80% and 90% of the glass/epoxy composites. The main reason for the poor mechanical properties of jute composites is associated with the weak interfacial bonding between fiber and matrix. The effect of surface treatment of jute fibers on the interfacial bonding will be examined in the future work.

섬유강화 복합재료의 계면 강도는 강화재와 메트릭스간의 계면특성, 강화용 섬유의 표면처리 및 섬유간의 거리 등에 많은 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 섬유간의 거리가 섬유강화 복합재료의 계면특성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하기 위해, E glass fiber/epoxy 복합재료의 시험편을 제작하고, 섬유의 표면처리 및 섬유파괴가 이웃하는 섬유파괴에 영향을 미치는 거리에 대해 고찰하였다. E glass fiber/epoxy 복합재료의 계면 전단강도는 섬유간 거리 $0{\sim}50{\mu}m$ 사이에서는 섬유의 표면처리와는 관계없이 섬유간 거리가 증가할수록 증가하였고, 섬유간 거리 $50{\mu}m$ 이상에서는 섬유간거리에 관계없이 계면전단강도는 일정하였다.

In this paper, we present an experimental investigation of the friction coefficient and wear area change of carbon/epoxy and E-glass/epoxy composites depending on the fiber direction (0°/90°). We compared the results of the case where the sliding direction is parallel to the fiber direction (0°) with that of the case where it is perpendicular to the fiber direction (90°). The ball-on-plate wear test equipment was used to cause wear in both directions. Two types of specimens were prepared with thicknesses of 3 mm-one made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic composite (CFRP) and the other of glass fiber reinforced plastic composite (GFRP). A normal force of 20 N was applied to the specimen and the sliding speed was 10 mm/s and the sliding distance was set to 20 m to perform the wear test. The CFRP demonstrates superior tribological characteristics compared to the GFRP. This outcome is attributed to graphitization of carbon, which serves as solid lubricating particles. In addition, both CFRP and GFRP are worn more in the 90° direction than in the 0° direction. This is due to the greater occurrence of fiber breakage and separation in the 90° direction than in the 0° direction. This study is expected to be utilized as basic data for understanding the friction and wear characteristics of CFRP and GFRP composites along the fiber direction and to apply the appropriate material.

Degradation characteristics of filament-winded composites due to accelerated environmental aging have been evaluated under high temperature, water immersion and thermal impact conditions. Two kinds of laminated composites coated by an urethane resin have been used: carbon-fiber reinforced epoxy(T700/Epon-826, CFRP) and glass-fiber reinforced phenolic (E-glass/phenolic, GFRP). For tensile strength of $0^{\circ}$ composites, CFRP did high reduction by 25% under the influence of high temperature and water while CFRP showed little degradation. However for water-immersed $90^{\circ}$ composites both CFRP and GFRP showed high reduction in tensile strength. Bending strength and modulus of $90^{\circ}$ composites were largely reduced in water-immersion as well as high temperature environment. Urethane coating on the composite surface improved the bending properties by 20%, however hardly showed such improvement for water-immersed $90^{\circ}$ composites.

고리지방족 에폭시와 산무수물 경화제계에 탄소단섬유(SCF)와 유리단섬유(SGF)를 첨가하여 복합재를 제조한 다음 이들의 열적/기계적 특성을 조사하였다. 열기계분석법으로 측정된 열팽창계수(CTE)의 감소 효과를 보면 낮은 단섬유 함량에서는 두 섬유가 거의 비슷하나, 함량이 증가하면 SCF가 SGF에 비해 훨씬 효과적이었다. SCF 강화 복합재에 대한 CTE 실험값을 이론식에 적용해 본 결과 함량이 낮을 때는 혼합법칙(mixture rule)에 잘 맞으며, 함량이 높아지면 Craft-Christensen 식에 근접하였다. 또한, 유리상($30^{\circ}C$과 고무상($180^{\circ}C$)에서의 저장탄성률은 단섬유를 첨가하였을 때 크게 증가하였다. 전자주사현미경(SEM)으로 파단면을 관찰하여본 결과 이와 같은 결과는 단섬유와 에폭시 매트릭스간의 계면접착력과 밀접한 관계가 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Fully biodegradable high strength composites or 'advanced green composites' were fabricated using yearly renewable soy protein based resins and high strength liquid crystalline cellulose fibers. For comparison, E-glass and aramid ($Kevlar^{(R)}$) fiber reinforced composites were also prepared using the same modified soy protein resins. The modification of soy protein included forming an interpenetrating network-like (IPN-like) resin with mechanical properties comparable to commonly used epoxy resins. The IPN-like soy protein based resin was further reinforced using nano-clay and microfibrillated cellulose. Fiber/resin interfacial shear strength was characterized using microbond method. Tensile and flexural properties of the composites were characterized as per ASTM standards. A comparison of the tensile and flexural properties of the high strength composites made using the three fibers is presented. The results suggest that these green composites have excellent mechanical properties and can be considered for use in primary structural applications. Although significant additional research is needed in this area, it is clear that advanced green composites will some day replace today's advanced composites made using petroleum based fibers and resins. At the end of their life, the fully sustainable 'advanced green composites' can be easily disposed of or composted without harming the environment, in fact, helping it.

Since the electromagnetic properties of fiber reinforced polymeric laminate composite can be tailored effectively by adjusting its composition and regulating the stacking sequence, it is plausible material for fabricating the radar absorbing structures (RAS) of desired performance. In order to design the effective electromagnetic wave (EM) absorber with the fiber reinforced polymeric laminate composite, its electromagnetic characteristics should be available and could be regulated easily in the target frequency bands. In this study, dielectric characteristics of the E-glass/epoxy laminate composites were measured by the free space method in the X-band frequency range ($8.2\;{\sim}\;12.4\;GHz$). In order to describe the dielectric behavior of laminate composites of arbitrary stacking sequences, the equivalent circuit model and the laminating equations for estimating dielectric properties were proposed, and experimentally verified. From the comparison of the predicted and measured data, the proposed method predicted well the experimentally measured data.

Since the electromagnetic properties of fiber reinforced polymeric composites can be tailored effectively by adding small amount of electromagnetic powders to the matrix of composites, they are plausible materials for fabricating the radar absorbing structures (RAS) of desired performance. In order to design the effective electromagnetic wave (EM) absorber with the fiber reinforced polymeric composites, the electromagnetic characteristics with respect to the constituents of the composite should be available in the target frequency band. In order to describe the dielectric behavior of low loss unidirectional fiber reinforced composite, theoretical models and mixture equations for estimating its dielectric constant were proposed with respect to the fiber, matrix volume fractions and fiber orientations, and verified by the experiments. From the investigation, it was found that the suggested binary mixture rules agreed well with the experimental results.
