Composite Strength Analysis On Repair Technique Between Sanding Repair And Peel Off Repair

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to study the special technique used in composite repair. This special technique has been used in the composite industry for about two years, but the existence of it is unknown to many and only few in Malaysia is familiar with this technique. This research first and foremost focuses on the two common repair types in composite industry, step cut repair and scarf cut repair. The report will then concentrate on the special technique used in composite repair, also known as peel off repair. The information regarding the special technique is mostly gathered from CTRM Melaka during our visit there and through continuous communication with their staffs. Having the knowledge about this research is beneficial and important, as composite repair technology is constantly growing internationally and the skills and information are still limited in Malaysia. Hopefully the outcomes of this research would contribute to the composite programmed in Malaysia.
