Jüt, E-cam ve Karbon Kumaşların Termo-mekanik Analizi

Abstract

Textile materials are one of the most favored reinforcement materials in the composite industry. In this study, thermo-mechanical properties of six various fabrics which are woven with three different yarns (jute, E-glass and carbon) are investigated by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) methods. According to DMA results, moduli of E-glass and carbon samples decrease with increasing temperature while it increases at jute samples. DSC graphs showed that there is not any phase change between 25°C -200°C at any of the samples. Considering the TGA results, it is realized that while jute fabrics have two sharp weight losses at about 255°C and 340°C, carbon fabrics have a weight loss at about 530°C.
