Study of Tensile Strength and Hardness Property for Epoxy Reinforced With Glass Fiber Layers

Abstract

Tensile strength and hardness property were studied in an epoxy (DGEBA)resin as a matrix reinforced with glass fibers for different volume fraction aslayers.A comparison was done between woven roven samples, random layerssamples and sandwich composite samples which consists of (woven roven andrandom). Finally the results show that the sandwich composite gives highertensile strength, while the composite reinforced with woven roven fiber hasmaximum hardness values.
