INVESTIGATION OF GLASS-METAL COMPOSITE MATERIALS
Abstract
The major efforts have been in the following directions: Improving existing and investigating new methods of forming and working composites of aluminum and aluminum coated glass fibers; Determining a complete set of physical data on a standard glass-reinforced aluminum composite in order to indicate the general characteristics of glass-reinforced metals as a class of materials; Developing a method of forming composites of aluminum and bare glass fibers and evaluating the physical properties of these composites; Produc tion and testing of glass-reinforced aluminum tubular shapes; Developing a theory on the inter action of metals and glass fibers; and Developing a glass-reinforced meving utility at tem peratures about 1000 F.
