Investigation on the sources of electricity consumption with alloy elements in carbon carbon materials composite

Within the scope of this study, the mechanical properties and electrical resistance of carbon fiber composites with different densities and mesh types were examined by adding silver as a second reinforcement. Plain weave type 2, 4, 6 and 8 layers 200 g/m2 and twill 2, 4, 6 and 8 layers 245 g/m2 are produced by vacuum infusion method by placing epoxy and non-added silver for each layer, respectively, by weight according to the epoxy used, in addition to carbon fibers, 2% and 4% silver, respectively. The combustion experiment on the manufactured composites was carried out according to ASTM D2584, ASTM D257-14 and ASTM D790 standards, respectively, to examine their electrical resistance and mechanical properties. As a result of the experiments, the data obtained from the combustion experiment, electrical resistance and tensile experiment of non-added and silver-reinforced composites were examined. It was found that the data obtained from twill type weaving came out higher. After the broken surfaces obtained after the tensile experiment were coated in a silver palladium device, they were examined with a field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and evaluations were made about the image and numerical data obtained.
