Interlaminar shear strength of textile reinforced carbon-carbon composite
Kotek, Jiří ; Glogar, Petr ; Černý, Martin
Interlaminar fracture of carbon fabric reinforced carbon composites with different volume fractions of reinforcement (Vf = 36 - 60 %) was investigated by tensile loading of double-notched specimens. Dynamic tensile and in-plane shear moduli of all materials increased with increasing Vf. The interlaminar shear strength yielded maximum values for specimens with volume fraction Vf ~ 48 %. After graphitisation, the in-plane shear modulus fell remarkably which is probably due to "stress graphitisation" of the matrix.

Effect of storage conditions on ageing process of plastics
Kovářová, Jana ; Špaček, V. ; Řeháková, H.
Autooxidation, a chemical chain reaction, is an important part of various forms of degradation of most polymeric materials. During time and in relation to the particular conditions under which the polymers serve (temperature, air oxygen, sun irradiation, ozone, mechanical treatment, impurities etc.) undesirable and irreversible changes in their structure and useful properties take place.The necessity to use appropriate antioxidants and stabilizers for slowing down the degradation processes is mentioned.
