  • development of kenaf glass reinforced unsaturated polyester hybrid composite for structural applications
    Composites Part B-engineering, 2014
    Co-Authors: A Atiqah, Md Abdul Maleque, Mohammad Jawaid, M Iqbal
    Abstract:

    Abstract The main aim of this paper is to develop kenaf-glass (KG) fibres reinforced unsaturated polyester hybrid composite on a source of green composite using sheet moulding Compound Process. Unsaturated polyester resin (UPE) and KG fibres in mat form were used at a ratio of 70:30 (by volume) with treated and untreated kenaf fibre. The kenaf fibre was treated with 6% sodium hydroxide (NaOH) diluted solution for 3 h using mercerization method. The hybrid composites were tested for flexural, tensile and Izod impact strength using ASTM D790-03, ASTM D618 and ASTM D256-04 standards respectively. The highest flexural, tensile and impact strength were obtained from treated kenaf with 15/15 v/v KG fibres reinforced UPE hybrid composite in this investigation. Scanning electron microscopy fractography showed fibre cracking, debonding and fibre pulled-out as the main fracture mode of composites and kenaf treated 15/15 v/v KG reinforced hybrid composite exhibited better interfacial bonding between the matrix and reinforcement compared to other combinations.

  • study on the preparation and properties of novolac epoxy graphite composite bipolar plate for pemfc
    International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 2010
    Co-Authors: Chen Hui, Liu Hongbo, Li Jianxin
    Abstract:

    Abstract In this study, the graphite/polymer composite bipolar plate was manufactured by a bulk-molding Compound Process. Low-cost novolac epoxy was chosen to Compound with natural graphite and black carbon. The electrical properties and mechanical properties of composite bipolar plate were studied. The aging behavior was characterized according to the changes in property before and after the immersion test. The results show that the composite bipolar plates have good corrosion resistibility in the simulated solution of 0.005 mol L−1 H2SO4 + 2 × 10−6 mol L−1 HF. TGA result shows that the novolac epoxy/NG composite has excellent thermal stability. The optimum Processing conditions for preparing composite bipolar plate are: resin content about 15 wt.%; molding pressure 200 MPa; curing temperature 180 °C; graphite particle size −200 mesh. Under the optimum conditions, the composite bipolar plates have been produced, the electrical conductivity can attain to 120 S/cm and flexural strength is higher than 38 MPa.
