Tensile Strength Analysis of Polymer Composite Materials Fiber Reinforced in The Fiber boat Application

Abstract

Tensile strength analysis of polymer composite materials (PCMs) fiberglass-reinforced is important for fiber boat manufacturing. It is one of mechanical properties can be determined by carrying out tensile testing. Tensile testing is very important for fiber boat. In this research each test was carried out on variations in the amount of fiberglass lamination CSM 300, CSM 450 and WR 600 and the variation in weight percentages of 99.5% -0.5%, 99% -1%, 98.5% -1 , 5%, 98% -2% and 97.5% -2.5% have been used. The results show that the more laminates, the tensile strength increases, and the more the weight of the hardener, the tensile strength decrease obtained.
