What is Mechanical and Electrical Assessment of Hybrid Composites Containing Hollow Glass Reinforcement about?
A study has been performed on a series of hybrid composites with hollow glass-®bre reinforcement. The materials were tested both mechanically and electrically by means of microwave transmission measurements and waveguide measurements of fundamental electromagnetic properties. The main eect of adding hollow glass ®bres to the hybrids was to reduce the measured value of dielectric constant, and it was shown that this could be combined with relatively high values of modulus if a sti ®bre such as Nicalon silicon carbide was used in the principal load-bearing direction. It was thus demonstrated that hybrid composites could be produced with a high levels of speci®c strength, modulus and damage tolerance combined with low dielectric constants, oering an attractive route for producing structurally sound electrically transparent components.
