Abstract

This study examined the effect of filler spatial orientation in polymer composite materials on fire hazard characteristics – heat release during combustion. The materials studied were carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRPs) based on carbon tow and unidirectional carbon fabric. It was found that depending on the orientation of the specimen in the test holder (vertical filler fiber direction – [0°] or horizontal – [90°]), the heat release characteristics change, with the maximum heat release rate changing.
