Abstract

Carbon fibre-nickel composites were made by electro-deposition and hot-pressing. The composites with low volume fraction of carbon fibres had a higher strength than the value obtained by the law of mixtures using the strength of annealed nickel. The current density became lower when the deposited nickel became thicker. The effects of annealing on deposited nickel were also observed and were related to the current density. Nickel deposited at low current density was hard to anneal.
