Composite Materials Lab
The third and fourth year students that applied in polymer and petrochemical branch in the materials department have learn the method of preparing samples by hand lay-up for polymer-based composite materials and conducting mechanical and physical tests. The tests include bending tests, thermal conductivity tests (Lee disc), impact tests, and tensile tests for testing polymer-based composite reinforced by particulate and fibers materials.
