  Effect of Surface Modification on Properties of Kevlar/Epoxy Polymer Composites

  By Tran Thi Y Nhi, Trinh Duc Cong, Dang Thi Mai, Nguyen Thi Thuc, Tran Thi Thanh Hop, Tung Pham, Ngo Trinh Tung

  Abstract: In this study, a high-performance Kevlar/epoxy polymer composite was prepared using a hand lay-up technique. The Kevlar fiber was treated with calcium chloride/ethanol solution (CaCl2/EtOH) to enhance the interfacial interaction between the fiber and the epoxy matrix. The optimization of fiber surface treatment and fiber content for the best tensile strength (TS) of Kevlar/epoxy polymer composite was achieved using Box-Behnken design (BBD) through response surface methodology (RSM). Three parameters: CaCl2 …

  Vibration Analysis of Woven Hybrid Carbon-Kevlar Composite Laminates

  By G Ram Vishal, Subha S, Rahul B

  Abstract: Composite materials have revolutionized the field of engineering and design, providing the ability to combine two or more materials with different properties to create new materials with enhanced characteristics. The intricate process of weaving together carbon fiber and Kevlar fiber to create a 3D composite fabric is not only fascinating but also results in a beautiful, intricate pattern. Hand weaving is an art that requires precision and skill, and when …
