Abstract
An important parameter in composite materials is mechanical behavior and matrix-reinforcement interface interaction under applied stresses. In this investigation, bending strength of carbon-carbon composites synthesized from wood was analyzed as a measure of the composite mechanical properties. Also, densification efficiency of the products was determined by measuring the bulk density and open porosity percentage. Using scanning electron microscopy, optical microscopy, X-Ray diffraction, and Raman spectroscopy, the final product was examined to evaluate and interpret the morphology and internal texture and results of mechanical test. The results showed that we are able to use an ordinary material such as wood for production of a unique product with great properties called two-dimensional carbon-carbon composites.
