Tensile Behavior Analysis on Different Structures of 3D Glass
Woven Perform for Fibre Reinforced Composites Keywords: 3D Weaving, Tensile Analysis and Fibre Crimp. Mehran University Research Journal of Engineering & Technology Volume 32 , Issue 1 MAZHAR HUSSAIN PEERZADA,SADAF ABBASI,AWAIS KHATRI Abstract Three common 3D (Three Dimensional) Glass woven structures were studied to analyze the tensile behavior. Each type of strand (Warp, weft and binder) of 3D woven structure was studied in detail. Crimp percentage of those strands was measured by crimp meter. Standard size samples of each 3D woven structure were cut in warp and weft direction and were stretched by Instron Tensile testing computerized machine. Results reveal that hybrid possesses lowest crimp in core strands and higher strength in warp as well as weft direction. Layer to layer woven structure appeared with lower strength and higher strain value due to highest crimp percentage in core strands. |
