Effects of needle-punched felt structure on the mechanical properties of carbon/carbon composites
2003
The effects of needle-punched felt structure, including mass ratio of non-woven cloth to short-cut fiber web, PAN-based carbon fiber types of non-woven cloth and thickness of unit (one layer of non-woven cloth and short-cut web was named as a unit), on the flexural properties of C/C composites from pressure gradient CVI are discussed. Results show that flexural strength and modulus increase when mass ratio of non-woven cloth to short-cut fiber web changes from 7:3 to 6:4 and that PAN-based carbon fiber types of non-woven cloth strongly influence the flexural properties. The strength of C/C composites is not linear with the strength of non-woven cloth carbon fiber because of the important interface between carbon fiber and matrix carbon. It is suitable to choose T300 or T700 as reinforcing carbon fiber for C/C composites in the present study. An optimum unit number per cm of the needle-punched felts for higher flexural properties exists.
