Effect of Fiber Content on Failure Modes of Glass Fiber Reinforced Injection Molded Polyamide 66 Composites

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the present study, glass fiber reinforced Polyamide 66 composites were produced using laboratory type twin screw extrusion and injection molding processes. The glass fiber reinforcement was applied at 1, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 wt% loadings. The morphological structure of the samples and failure modes of glass fiber reinforced Polyamide 66 composites were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis on fractured surfaces of tensile tested samples in this study.
