【 摘 要 】

Nowadays, glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) and carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites are broadly used so it is essential their properties to be explored in depth. In this study, GFRPs and CFRPs were produced by vacuum bag oven method and their viscoelastic behaviour at elevated temperatures was investigated. In particular, by Dynamic Mechanical Analysis experiments properties such as storage modulus, loss modulus, tanδ and glass transition temperature were determined. The results showed that, apart from a very small increment in the low temperatures in some of the compounds, as the temperature increases the storage modulus of the composites decrease while the composite containing unidirectional glass fibers in longitudinal direction and 34% percentage of matrix achieved the higher storage and loss modulus. Furthermore, as the unidirectional fibers change direction from transverse to longitudinal the GFRPs exhibit much higher storage and loss modulus.
