Synergistic Effect of Nano Silica and Carbon Nano Fiber Fillers on Mechanical Properties, Thermal Stability, and Ablative Properties of Carbon Fiber/Phenolic Resin Composites
This experimental investigation evaluates the influence of Nano Silica (NS) and Carbon Nano fiber (CNF) fillers-individually and in hybrid form on the mechanical, thermal, and ablative characteristics of Carbon Fiber/Phenolic (CP) composites. Four laminates were fabricated: neat CP, CP/NS (5 wt %), CP/CNF (0.5 wt %), a...
