Scanning Electron Microscopy of Fracture Surfaces of Carbon Composite Materials.

Abstract

A microscopic study has been performed on carbon composite fracture surfaces, using the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). It appears that the SEM is a useful tool to examine the fracture surface characteristics of composite materials failing under different loading conditions. (MM)
