Experimental Analysis of Aramid Fiber Reinforced with Tungsten CarbideBy Prashant Manvi, Siddalingappa P. Kodigaddi, Srikanth H.V., Rachitha A, Aswin Sidharth M., Ullas Gowda A.
Abstract: This study investigates the mechanical performance of aramid fiber-reinforced epoxy composites enhanced with varying weight percentages of tungsten carbide (WC) powder as a secondary reinforcement. The composites were fabricated using both the hand lay-up and vacuum bagging techniques to ensure uniform dispersion of materials and quality surface finish. Tungsten carbide particles with an average size of 4 microns were incorporated into the aramid fiber matrix at incremental concentrations of 0%, …
