Abstract

In this article the effect of graphitization in twodimensional c‐c composite bodies prepared by impregnation of novalak resin is reported. Mechanical properties were determined by bending tests and microstructural features were studied by SEM and XRD. It was found that primary graphitization at 2300°C followed by graphitization at 2500°C improves the mechanical strength remarkably. Repeated graphitization and long – term treatment at 2500°C, however, found to have an adverse effect. Microstructural observations revealed that the level of strength is mainly controlled by a sheath developed around the fibre during graphitization.

Applying an improper thermal regime affects the matrix – fibre adherence and may cause the destruction of the fibres. This enhances the crack propagation and causes early failure of composite body under loading.
