Abstract: Vacuum assistant spray method was used to fabricate the glass fiber composite with 0.5% and 2% CNF. Meanwhile, the saturated permeability and non-saturated permeability of composites were measured and compared. The results show that the saturated permeability and non-saturated permeability of 0.5% and 2% CNF composites were reduced. The saturated permeability of Z direction was 20% compared to Y direction without CNF and reduced to 10% with CNF addition. The permeability of Z direction was almost zero when the porosity was less than 47%. The 0.5% CNF had little influence on the non-saturated permeability of the glass fiber matrix, but the non-saturated permeability of composite with 2% CNF was 20% compared to the glass fiber matrix.

Key words: glass fiber, CNF, porosity, permeability
