Evolution of the Electrical Resistance of Woven Cfrp Laminas during Mechanical Tests

چکیده
Reliable failure prediction methods are required for extending the range of applications of carbon-fiber-reinforced-polymers. In parallel, the development of non-destructive tests (NDT) for continuous health monitoring would result in structures of improved durability and safety. Carbon fibre-reinforced polymers (CFRP) have been investigated for the development of “smart” structures characterized by the in-situ damage detection.

The improvement of electrical conductivity of carbon-fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) has been investigated by conductive silver nano-particles coating for the purpose of aircraft lightning protection. Silver nano-particles in colloid were sprayed on the surface of carbon fibers, which were then impregnated by epoxy resin to form a CFRP specimen. Electrical resistance was measured by contact re...
