Abstract:MacPherson strut bearing units (MSBUs) were fabricated with short carbon fiber/polyamide 66 by injection molding. The mechanical and vibrational characteristics of MSBUs were analyzed. The results showed that tensile specimens using carbon fibers showed increased strength and stiffness compared to those using glass fibers. In injection-molded MSBUs, there is a good degree of dispersion of the carbon fibers in the polymer matrix, and the fibers are observed to have good interfacial bonding with the matrix This … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
