  • Abstract:
  • Glass fabric reinforced epoxy this composite were filled with two types of fillers namely graphite, silicon carbide (each 15 and 20 weight) this composite was fabricated by hand lay-up method and compressed using hot press process. These composites were checked for their mechanical properties such as tensile, compression testings and impact strength as well as fracture toughness as per ASTM standards. Experimental results on mechanical properties indicate that the strength and the modulus in tensile and flexural mode. Selected failed samples under tensile, bending and fracture were tested. This application can be used in landing gear.
