Abstract:It is particularly important to investigate the mechanical performance of carbon fiber (CF) reinforced polyamide 6 (PA6) composites used for automotive and aerospace applications, where diffused moisture of the environment may potentially weaken the material over time. In this work, CF/PA6 composites were subjected to two different types of conditioning: distilled water at a temperature of 80 ºC and saline solution for 12 weeks. The volumetric fraction of CF, PA6 matrix, and the voids of the CF/PA6 composites … Show more
