Structure–property relationships in glass reinforced polyamide, part 2: The effects of average fiber diameter and diameter distribution

Modifiers for Glass Fiber-reinforced Polypropylene and Polyamide

The influence of fibre length, diameter and concentration on the impact performance of long glass-fibre reinforced Polyamide 6,6

Results of an investigation of the mechanical performance of injection moulded long glass-fibre reinforced polyamide 6,6 composites are presented. The glass-fibre content in these composites was varied over the range of 10-50% by weight using fibres with average diameters of 10, 14 and 17 μm. Impact testing was carried out at -40, 23 and 80°C on dry-as-moulded and boiling water conditioned samp...

Effect of length and diameter of fiber reinforced composite post (FRC) on fracture resistance of remaining tooth structure

Introduction: Post and core has been considered for endodontically treated tooth, especially in cases with severe damage crowns. Recently fiber reinforced composite posts (FRC post) have been used in the treatment of endodontically treated teeth. Because the length and diameter of posts are effective in stress distribution, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of length and diame...

Polyamide Fiber Reinforced Shotcrete for Tunnel Application

This study intends to establish the mechanical properties of polyamide fiber reinforced shotcrete (PAFRS) in terms of compressive and flexural strengths, in accordance with ASTM C1609/C1609M-12. The mechanical properties identified the influence of polyamide fiber content on the PAFRS strength. This study evaluated the toughness of PAFRS and proposed additional toughness level criteria to bette...

Woven Glass Fiber-Reinforced

ment methods and two spec/imen diameters. Flexural strength and modulus of woven glass fiber-reinforced specimens werc significanLly greater than those without woven glass fiber (p<O.OD, Likewise, comprossive strength of reinforced specimens was signifieantly greater than those without woven glass fiber (p<O.Ol), except for specimens rcjnforced with woven glass fiber oriented at a tilt directio...
