Abstract
The influence of through-the-thickness binder yarn count on fibre volume fraction, crimp and damage tolerance within three-dimensional woven carbon fibre composites was investigated. Fabrics were woven with varying binder yarn counts and subjected to dry fabric compression testing and compression after impact testing. It was found that a power law could be used to predict fibre volume fraction and identify the required pressure to achieve a specific volume fraction and that impact depth was significantly influenced by impact location on the through-the-thickness binders. 17 refs.
