Abstract
The purpose of this work is to compare tensile, compressive and interlaminar shear properties of different carbon reinforcement/polyamide composites obtained by interfacial polymerization and hot compression molding techniques. Two types of composite matrices were studied: polyamide 6 and polyamide 6/6, both reinforced by fabric and unidirectional carbon fibers. The effects of the fiber volume fraction and the matrix on mechanical properties were analyzed through tensile, interlaminar shear and compressive tests. In general, the results have shown a slight increase of the composite elastic modulus, tensile and compressive strength with the increase of carbon fiber content. The microscopic damage development within selected composites during the loading has been observed through optical and scanning electron microscope techniques and has shown that shear failure at the fiber/matrix interface has been mostly responsible for damage development, initiated at relatively low stress.
