摘要: In the present work, reference and nano-modified unidirectional quasi-isotropic, epoxy matrix, carbon fibre reinforced polymers, were exposed to distilled water at hydrothermal environment. Water uptake was investigated as a function of CNT matrix wt-% content up saturation level. parallel variation glass transition temperature Tg also monitored using DMA tests. The absorption process modelled following Fick’s law, experimental results found be in very good agreement theoretical predictions saturation. During tests, defined time intervals, electrical conductivity materials studied correlation between established. Finally, all ones concluded stage broadband dielectric measurements frequency range 0·1 Hz 1 MHz.
