- Abstract
Carbon fiber tow is used in aerospace, automotive, marine, sports etc. applications with over 20 years' service history due to outstanding processing characteristics. This research work deals with carbon fiber tow mechanical properties improvement by conducting a new device, i.e. fiber splicing equipment to rejoin the untwisted broken carbon fiber tow during weaving procedure with the aid of the application of epoxy resin and UV light mechanism. Furthermore, mechanical properties of carbon fiber tow fabrics were also investigated which included tensile and bursting strength and results showed that significantly improved their properties.
