Carbon fiber as a resistive heat generator to accelerate adhesive cure in reinforced wood laminates

Creator:

Liem, Jeffry

Abstract:

As a result of its atomic structure, carbon fiber produced from mesophase pitch has a high electrical conductivity and high tensile strength. Others have used carbon fiber as a resistive heating unit to accelerate matrix solidification in carbon fiber-polymer matrix composites. In this study, a unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced polymer...
