The tensile test was also conducted. The tensile strength and elastic modulus of the composite are increased with the increase in the carbon fiber content. The tensile strength of the composite with 48 Vol.% carbon fiber is 50% higher than that of the matrix material. However, the plasticities of the composite are decreased dramatically with the increase in the carbon content. When the carbon fiber content is small, the solodification conditions have greater effect on tensile strength but smaller on elastic modulus of the composite, while large amount of carbon fibers are added, solidification conditions affect elastic modulus more and tensile strength less.Read More
