| Title: | Effect of fabric pre-stretching on the tensile properties of knitted fabric composites | Authors: | Ramakrishna, S. | Issue Date: | 1998 | Citation: | Ramakrishna, S. (1998). Effect of fabric pre-stretching on the tensile properties of knitted fabric composites. Advanced Composites Letters 7 (3) : 87-89. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | This paper illustrates the influence of fabric pre-stretching on the tensile properties of knitted fabric composites. Prior to the composite fabrication, the fabric was stretched bi-axially in wale and course directions by different amounts. It has been shown that tensile properties of the composite in a specific direction can be improved by selectively pre-stretching the fabric more in that direction. It is also found that the equi-biaxially pre-stretched fabric composite displays marginally higher tensile properties compared to the composite reinforced with 0% pre-stretched fabric. | Source Title: | Advanced Composites Letters | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/58172 | ISSN: | 09636935 |
