Manufacturing and Experimental Analysis of Carbon Epoxy, Glass Epoxy Composite Laminated Plates

A composite material is a combination of two or more different materials; it gives superior quality than its constituents. Composite materials can be used not only for structural applications, but also in various other applications such as automobiles, aerospace, marine, etc. Composite materials have replaced most of the commonly used materials due to its advantages over the other materials. The composite material is fabricated using manual layup technique; the laminated plate's specimen will be tested as per ASTM standards to study various mechanical properties like ultimate tensile strength, bending strength, and physical property like density, at room temperature. The prime objective of this work is to fabricate and analyze the mechanical properties and physical property of carbon epoxy and glass epoxy composites. The main aim of this work is to estimate the mechanical properties and physical property of carbon epoxy and glass epoxy material. Also, the testing of aluminum has been performed and compared with glass epoxy and carbon epoxy composites. Thus this paper will assist to understand the mechanical properties and physical property of composite.
