    Properties
In summary, the individual is seeking to find the properties of e-glass fiber 420 gm bi-bias, specifically E, Poisson's ratio, and G. However, they have come across websites that do not provide the basis weight along with the properties. They are wondering if the mechanical properties are independent of basis weight and if it makes a difference if it is a bi-bias or not. Their ultimate goal is to apply the rule of mixture.

Hey everybody;

There is something I don't understand. I need to find the properties(E,Poisson's ratio, G) of e-glass fiber 420 gm bi-bias. I find some interesting websites but each time when they give properties, they don't give the basis weight. So if I understand, mechanical properties are independant of the basis weight and if it's a bi-bias or not.

The aim is after applying the rule of mixture.

Thanks for your help !

Thanks for the post! Sorry you aren't generating responses at the moment. Do you have any further information, come to any new conclusions or is it possible to reword the post?
 

FAQ: E-Glass Properties: Find E, Poisson's Ratio, G

What is E-Glass and what are its properties?

E-Glass is a type of glass that is commonly used in fiber-reinforced composites. It is known for its high strength, stiffness, and chemical resistance. E-Glass also has a low thermal expansion coefficient and is electrically insulating.

How do you find the modulus of elasticity (E) for E-Glass?

The modulus of elasticity, or Young's modulus, for E-Glass can be found by conducting a tensile test on a sample of the glass. This test measures the amount of stress placed on the material and the resulting strain, which is then used to calculate the modulus of elasticity.

What is Poisson's Ratio for E-Glass?

Poisson's Ratio is a measure of how much a material will expand or contract in one direction when stretched or compressed in another direction. For E-Glass, the Poisson's Ratio is typically around 0.23, meaning that it will expand in one direction by 0.23% when stretched in another direction.

How is Poisson's Ratio determined for E-Glass?

Poisson's Ratio for E-Glass can be experimentally determined by conducting a tensile test and measuring the change in diameter of the sample as it is stretched. The ratio of the change in diameter to the change in length is equivalent to Poisson's Ratio.

What is the shear modulus (G) for E-Glass?

The shear modulus, or modulus of rigidity, for E-Glass is a measure of its resistance to shearing forces. It is typically around 4 to 5 times smaller than the modulus of elasticity for E-Glass, and can be found experimentally by conducting a torsion test on a sample of the glass.
