Abstract

The effect of biochar filler (carbon particle) on the mechanical properties over the inter-laminar surfaces of basalt unidirectional fabric/polyester resin is going to be scrutinized using Mode II delamination method. The ENF (end notch flexure) specimen is fabricated using hand layup method. Here basalt fabric is synthesized using unsaturated polymer resin with the help of methyl ethyl ketone peroxide and cobalt naphthenate as a catalyst. Both specimens are manufactured with and without biochar conditions. The laminate length and width will be customized as per the required dimensions of the ASTM standard. The ENF specimens are tested using the universal testing machine and the strain energy released rate and displacement of each specimen are been measured. The biochar based laminated composite has a resistant towards the fracture developed on laminated composite during testing due to the addition of carbon particles.
