Experimental study of tensile Strength of Glass-epoxy Composites at different Laminate Orientations

Abstract

One of the most important requirement from the materials is to provide more strength at the expense of less weight. E-glass fiber is the material which satisfy this requirement. E-glass fiber has various applications in fields such as aerospace, automobile, marine, piping industries etc., that’s make it is most versatile material of today’s industries. In the present research work, attempt is made to fabricate the E-glass/epoxy composites at three different laminate orientations: 0º/0º/0º/0º/0º, 0º/45º/0º/-45º/0º and 0º/90º/0/90º/0º. Fabricated E-glass/epoxy composite specimens were tested for tensile strength, flexural strength and the experimental results had been validated through ANSYS software.
