摘要
An experimental programme has been carried out to study the mechanical performance of resin transfer moulded composites comprising a weft-knit glass fabric of Milano-rib architecture. A number of mechanical properties, i.e. tension, compression, bearing, impact and post-impact compression, were considered for laminates containing up to 12 layers of knitted fabric. With respect to more conventional composites, the knitted composites were found to have relatively poor tension and compression properties, but comparable bearing performance, and superior energy absorption and post-damage properties.
