Hi, 

I wondered if you can help I am underfed taking an Open University project on the amount of carbon fibre and epoxy needed to bind an Bamboo bike together. As such I need to know the material strength of the Carbon Fibre Tape Plain Weave 232g 25 mm that I bought off you, is it possible to supply these values when it is used with an epoxy??

Thank you,

Rob

Hi Rob,

We would not have exact data for a laminate of the tape and epoxy as every epoxy is different and there are so many different variables of construction and layup that would effect the final properties. You would be best simulating the effects through FEA on a CAD package to get some reasonably accurate results for your desired laminate.

However we can certainly give you the base properties of the materials. The resin specifications are found on each products listing and Technical Data Sheet. If you struggle to find these, I can email you the data for your chosen resin(s).  In terms of the tape properties, our Carbon Fibre Tape Plain Weave 232g is made using Mitsubishi Rayon Pyrofil TR30S 3K fibres. The data sheet for the tape can be found here: Carbon Fibre Tape TDS  and the data sheet for the fibre can be found here:Mitsubishi Rayon Pyrofil TR30S 3K. With both these datasheets you should be able to calculate some specific figures for your application.
