Manufacturing and properties of aramid-reinforced composites

摘要

The functional properties of the aramid-reinforced polymer composites depend primarily on the properties of the aramid reinforcing fibers, since the fraction of the fiber constituent in FRP is quite high, usually well above 30% by volume. The properties of the aramid fibers, in turn, depend on their chemical composition and manufacturing conditions: both of these determine the fibers physical structure and mechanical properties. The chapter will focus on these issues. Some specific problems related to the fiber-matrix nteraction.in aramid-containing FRP will also be addressed.
