Effect of temperature on the mechanical characteristics of carbon plastics reinforced with metal mesh

The behavior of carbon plastics based on FN resin and FN plus rubber and reinforced with metal mesh is investigated over a broad range of temperatures in tension, compression, and pure bending. The presence of a rubbery component considerably reduces the strength of the plastic while improving its deformation properties.Dnepropetrovsk State University.
