Özet:

In this study; the effects of thermal aging on the mechanical properties of composite materials were investigated. In study, eight layered woven glass fiber reinforced epoxy composite plates were used. Thermal aging was performed in an electric furnace using time and temperature change parameters. The time changes were 1, 3 and 5 hours, and 50 0C, 100 0C, and 150 0C were used for temperature changes. Thermally aged composite plates, at specified time and temperature values; modulus of elasticity, poisson ratio, tensile strength, compression strength, shear modulus and shear strength were determined in fiber reinforcement direction. The results obtained were compared with the results obtained from the specimens waited at room temperature. At the end of the study, it was determined that the mechanical properties of the composite plates changed when the thermal aging temperature and temperature increased.
