E-glass fibers

Rosen s results are plotted in Figure 3-50 for p = 7.7, a representative value for commercial E-glass fibers. Also plotted in Figure 3-50 is the mle-of-mixtures expression...

Reinforced plastics (RPs) hold a special place in the design and manufacturing industry because they are unique materials (Figs. 6-11 and 6-12). During the 1940s, RPs (or low-pressure laminates, as they were then commonly known) was easy to identify. The basic definition then, as now, is simply that of a plastic reinforced with either a fibrous or nonfibrous material. TSs such as polyester (Table 6-19) and E-glass fiber dominated and still dominates the field. Also used are epoxies.

As soon as the Ar s were determined and the values of r s are found, the values of the adhesion coefficient A may be readily defined by using relation (27). The values of A s for the different fiber-volume contents studied are given in Table II for E-glass fiber-epoxy resin composites with different amounts of fillers, up to 70 percent 22 >.

Fig. 17 presents the variation of the terms E((rf/r)n> and Em(rf/r), i in the mesophase layer for a 65 percent E-glass fiber-reinforced epoxy resin, as they have been derived from Eq. (48). It is wortwhile indicating the smooth transition of the Ermodulus to the Em-modulus at the region r == rf. Similar behaviour present all other compositions.

The specific heat of E glass fiber is 0.192 cal/gm K (i.e., 0.804 J/gm K) [73]. The specific heat of caprolactam as a function of temperature was fitted to the following equation from experimental data available in Monsanto ... 

Materials. Gelman 37 mm, type A/E glass fiber, GN-4 0.8 metricel, and DM-800 0.8 membrane filters were used in this study. Spectral quality, pyrolytic coated, graphite furnaces and rods were used in the study. The furnace capacity was 5 yL of solution. Manual sample injections were made with a 5 yL Eppen-dorf pipet 4700 using disposable tips.
