Abstract:Maintaining the mechanical properties and long-term operational safety is considered the main challenge for composite materials under cyclic loading. This work presents mechanical performance of tri-component composites based on multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), carbon fibres (CFs) and epoxy resin, and their electrical conductance property for applications like strain gauges. As a result of incorporation of MWCNTs into the epoxy resin in the composite’s morphology, their electrical, mechanical and piezoresi… Show more
