Hygrothermal cycling effects on the durability of phenolic based composites

Work has been performed to investigate the thermal and mechanical properties of carbon fiber/phenolic resin composites as engineering materials for the aerospace industry. These materials are cost effective while displaying excellent temperature and fire resistance as well as good mechanical properties. All phenolic and epoxy composite specimens used here were prepared by resin transfer molding (RTM) to model a cost‐effective process. Hygrothermal cycling effects on the property changes of phenolic composites were evaluated through thermal, mechanical, and morphological tests. The fracture performance of a phenolic composite modified with a silicone‐based additive decreased after fewer hygrothermal cycles than unmodified phenolic and epoxy composites. Results from dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) experiments showed that the modified phenolic composite was more significantly affected by the hygrothermal cycling than the unmodified phenolic composites. Fatigue tests showed that the phenolic composites that were not exposed to hygrothermal cycling had more resistance to fatigue cycles than the epoxy composites.     

Comparison of mechanical properties of epoxy composites reinforced with stitched glass and carbon fabrics: Characterization of mechanical anisotropy in composites and investigation on the interaction between fiber and epoxy matrix

The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate and compare the mechanical properties of epoxy‐based composites having different fiber reinforcements. Glass and carbon fiber composite laminates were manufactured by vacuum infusion of epoxy resin into two commonly used noncrimp stitched fabric (NCF) types: unidirectional and biaxial fabrics. The effects of geometric variables on composite structural integrity and strength were illustrated. Hence, tensile and three‐point bending flexural tests were conducted up to failure on specimens strengthened with different layouts of fibrous plies in NCF. In this article, an important practical problem in fibrous composites, interlaminar shear strength as measured in short beam shear test, is discussed. The fabric composites were tested in three directions: at 0°, 45°, and 90°. In addition to the extensive efforts in elucidating the variation in the mechanical properties of noncrimp glass and carbon fabric reinforced laminates, the work presented here focuses, also, on the type of interactions that are established between fiber and epoxy matrix. The experiments, in conjunction with scanning electron photomicrographs of fractured surfaces of composites, were interpreted in an attempt to explain the failure mechanisms in the composite laminates broken in tension.

基于NOL环的高性能纤维与环氧树脂的匹配性研究

纤维与树脂的界面对复合材料的整体力学性能有着显著的影响。基于NOL环的宏观力学测试一般被用来反映复合材料的界面粘结性能,因此适用于评价纤维与树脂之间的宏观力学性能匹配性。为了探究高性能碳纤维T700SC、T800HB及高强玻璃纤维与环氧树脂的宏观力学性能匹配性,本研究首先根据GB/T 1458—2008国家标准制备NOL环试样,再借助NOL环的拉伸和层间剪切强度测试分析了高性能纤维与环氧树脂不同匹配组合宏观力学性能差异的原因,并寻找出最佳匹配组合。结果表明:玻璃纤维与环氧树脂的界面存在最佳的粘结强度,而且不同粘结强度导致拉伸强度和破坏机理不同,而碳纤维复合材料界面性能较差,容易分层破坏;T800HB与环氧树脂的宏观力学匹配性优于T700SC,环氧树脂力学性能、碳纤维的表面微观结构与性质以及环氧树脂与碳纤维之间的相互作用关系是影响界面粘结性能的根本原因。该研究在高性能纤维单向复合材料的材料选择与设计方面具有现实意义。     

Influence of different glass fiber sizings on selected mechanical properties of PET/glass composites

The properties of fiber-reinforced plastics are considerably influenced by fiber-matrix interaction. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of glass fiber surface treatments on the morphology of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and on selected mechanical properties of unidirectional PET/glass fiber composites. The materials used here were E-glass fibers treated with model sizings including aminosilane as a coupling agent and polyurethane and epoxy resin dispersions as film formers and PET as the matrix. For identification of the degree of crystallinity of the PET matrix, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used. To study the influence of the different sizings on the mechanical properties, the following tests were performed: interlaminar and intralaminar shear tests and a transverse tensile test. Dynamic-mechanical analysis (DMA) was used to characterize the behavior of the composites under dynamical load. The DSC results show that the overall crystallinity and the melting behavior of the PET matrix were hardly influenced by the glass fiber surface treatments used. The various strength properties of the composites are influenced not only by the silane coupling agent, but also by the type of film former. With an epoxy resin dispersion, the mechanical properties were enhanced compared with a polyurethane dispersion. These results were confirmed by characterization of the composites by DMA.     

Effect of quasi‐carbonization processing parameters on the mechanical properties of quasi‐carbon/phenolic composites

In this work, quasi‐carbon fabrics were produced by quasi‐carbonization processes conducted at and below 1200°C. Stabilized polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fabrics and quasi‐carbon fabrics were used as reinforcements of phenolic composites with a 50 wt %/50 wt % ratio of the fabric to the phenolic resin. The effect of the quasi‐carbonization process on the flexural properties, interfacial strength, and dynamic mechanical properties of quasi‐carbon/phenolic composites was investigated in terms of the flexural strength and modulus, interlaminar shear strength, and storage modulus. The results were also compared with those of a stabilized PAN fabric/phenolic composite. The flexural, interlaminar, and dynamic mechanical results were quite consistent with one another. On the basis of all the results, the quasi‐static and dynamic mechanical properties of quasi‐carbon/phenolic composites increased with the applied external tension and heat‐treatment temperature increasing and with the heating rate decreasing for the quasi‐carbonization process. This study shows that control of the processing parameters strongly influences not only the mechanical properties of quasi‐carbon/phenolic composites but also the interlaminar shear strength between the fibers and the matrix resin. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Thermal degradation of epoxy resin reinforced with polypropylene fibers

The influence of polypropylene fibers on the thermal degradation of epoxy composites was investigated with thermogravimetric analysis. Three composites with 5, 10, or 15 wt % polypropylene fibers were prepared with epoxy as a matrix material. The polypropylene fibers, used as reinforcing materials, retarded the thermal decomposition, and increasing the weight percentage of the fiber material increased the thermal stability to a certain extent. Of the three composites, the 10 wt % polypropylene fiber/epoxy resin composite showed very good thermal stability, which was indicated by the increase in the resin decomposition temperature from 280°C for the 5 wt % polypropylene fiber/epoxy resin composite to 375°C for the 10 wt % polypropylene fiber/epoxy resin composite. The Horowitz–Metzger method was used to calculate the activation energies, and the results were tabulated. A morphological analysis was carried out with scanning electron microscopy to evaluate the dispersion of the fibers in the epoxy matrix. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effects of novolac resin modification on mechanical properties of carbon fiber/epoxy composites

The epoxy resin matrix of carbon fiber (CF)‐reinforced epoxy composites was modified with novolac resin (NR) to improve the matrix‐dominated mechanical properties of composites. Flexural strength, interlaminar shear strength (ILSS), and impact strength were measured with unfilled, 7 wt% NR, 13 wt% NR, and 18 wt% NR filled to epoxy to identify the effect of adding NR on the mechanical properties of composites. The results showed that both interfacial and impact properties of composites were improved except for flexural property. The largest improvement in ILSS and impact strength were obtained with 13 wt% loading of NR. ILSS and impact strength were improved by 7.3% and 38.6%, respectively, compared with the composite without NR. The fracture and surface morphologies of the composite specimens were characterized by scanning electron microscopy. Intimate bonding of the fibers and the matrix was evident with the content of 7–13 wt% NR range. Decrease of crosslinking density and formation of NR transition layer were deduced with adding NR.

树脂对碳纤维/玻璃纤维层间混杂复合材料湿态弯曲特性影响

为了探究树脂基体对相同铺层方式下碳纤维/玻璃纤维层间混杂复合材料(碳/玻体积混杂比为1.86/1)干态、湿态(100℃水煮2 h)弯曲特性的影响,首先对环氧树脂和乙烯基树脂浇铸体试样分别开展了耐水性加速老化试验,并对两种树脂浇铸体试样在每个老化试验周期下分别开展剩余弯曲特性试验;然后对碳/玻层间混杂复合材料开展干、湿态弯曲试验。结果表明,无论是在常规试验(未经过老化)还是在各个老化试验周期,两种树脂浇铸体试样弯曲应力–位移曲线变化规律基本一致,但总体而言,环氧树脂浇铸体试样常规弯曲强度和各个阶段老化后弯曲强度均优于乙烯基树脂浇铸体试样;相同试验状态下,两种树脂基混杂复合材料试样湿态弯曲强度和弯曲弹性模量均较干态试样产生不同程度的降低,但环氧树脂基混杂复合材料试样在干、湿态环境下的弯曲性能均优于乙烯基树脂基混杂复合材料试样。     

Loading rate effects on mechanical properties of polymer composites at ultralow temperatures

E‐glass fibers of 55, 60, and 65 weight percentages were reinforced with epoxy matrix to prepare the laminated composites. They were exposed to ?40, ?60, and ?80°C temperatures for different times. The 3‐piont bend test was conducted on the conditioned samples at those temperatures. Mechanical test was carried out at 2 mm/min and 500 mm/min crosshead speeds. The main emphasis of the investigation was to evaluate the roles of percentage matrix phase and interfacial areas on the interlaminar shear failure mechanism of glass/epoxy composites at ultralow temperatures for different loading speeds. The mechanical performances of the laminated specimens at low temperatures were compared with room temperature property. The loading rate sensitivity of the polymer composites appeared to be inconsistent and contradictory at some points of conditioning time and as well as at a temperature of conditioning. This Phenomenon may be attributed to low‐temperature hardening, matrix cracking, misfit strain due to differential thermal coefficient of the constituent phases, and also to enhanced mechanical keying factor by compressive residual stresses at low temperatures. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

High-performance composite from epoxy and glass fibers: Morphology,mechanical, dynamic mechanical,and thermal analysis

Diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A type epoxy resin cured with diamino diphenyl sulfone was used as the matrix for fiber-reinforced composites to get improved mechanical and thermal properties for the resulting composites. E-glass fiber was used for fiber reinforcement. The morphology, tensile, flexural, impact, dynamic mechanical, and thermal properties of the composites were analyzed. The tensile, flexural, and impact properties showed dramatic improvement with the addition of glass fibers. Dynamic mechanical analysis was performed to obtain the T_g of the cured matrix as well as the composites. The improved thermal stability of the composites was clear from the thermogravimetric analysis. Scanning electron micrographs were taken to understand the interfacial adhesion between the fiber and the matrix. The values of mechanical properties were compared with modified epoxy resin composite system. Predictive models were applied using various equations to compare the mechanical data obtained theoretically and experimentally. POLYM. COMPOS., 2009. © 2008 Society of Plastics Engineers

Mechanical characterization of new glass fiber reinforced epoxy composites

Glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) composites were made using CTPEGA [carboxyl terminated poly(ethylene glycol) adipate] modified epoxy as a matrix and characterized for their flexural properties, impact strength and interlaminar shear stress (ILSS). The volume fraction of glass was about 0.45 for all the composites. The concentration of CTPEGA in the matrix was varied gradually from 0 to 40 phr (parts per hundred parts of resin), to investigate the effect of CTPEGA concentration on the mechanical properties of the composites. It was found that the flexural strength and ILSS gradually decreases with increase in CTPEGA concentration. However, the impact strength of the composites increases up to 20 phr of CTPEGA concentration and decreases thereafter. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis of the fracture surface indicates massive plastic deformation in modified epoxy based composites. Polym.

Characterization of a rigid silicone resin

Silicone resins have been used as binders for ceramic frit coatings and can withstand temperatures of 650°C to 1260°C. Conceptually, silicone resins can potentially be used as matrices for high temperature fiber‐reinforced composites. The mechanical and thermal properties of a commercially available silicone resin, Dow Corning® 6‐2230, were characterized. Neat 6‐2230 resin was found to have inferior room temperature mechanical properties such as flexural, tensile and fracture properties when compared to epoxy. The room temperature flexural properties and short beam shear strength of the silicone/glass composites were also found to be lower than those of epoxy/glass composite with similar glass content. However, the silicone resin had better elevated temperature properties. At an elevated temperature of 316°C, the retentions of flexural modulus and strength were 80% and 40% respectively of room temperature values; these were superior to those of phenolic/glass. Unlike the carbon‐based resins, the drop in flexural properties of the silicon/glass laminates with temperature leveled off with increase in temperature beyond 250°C. The resin weight loss at 316°C in 100 cm³/min of flowing air was small compared to other carbon‐based resins such as PMR‐15 and LaRC TPI. Only Avimid‐N appeared comparable to Dow Corning® 6‐2230.     

Studies on the modification of interphase/interfaces by use of plasma in certain polymer composite systems

Calcium carbonate and carbon fiber surfaces were modified by use of a series of plasma polymers at different selected plasma conditions, and the effect of surface modification, mainly on the mechanical properties of composite systems prepared, was investigated. The matrices for the composite systems employed were polypropylene and epoxy, for the chalk and C fiber, respectively. Mechanical and thermal studies and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) pictures revealed that inclusion surfaces, being independent of their geometry and size, can be modified effectively by plasma. A polypropylene matrix with 30% modified chalk had better properties than composites with 10% unmodified chalk. Tensile strength and stress to failure values for single carbon fibers were found to be improved by plasma treatment. Surface-treated carbon fibers yielded at composites with better interlaminar shear strength and flexural strengths.     

界面结合对GF/PDCPD复合材料性能的影响

界面结合性能对制备性能优异的复合材料具有重要意义。通过对双环戊二烯（DCPD）与玻璃纤维（GF）的浸润性进行研究，将其与等效环氧树脂比较，开发了一种与玻璃纤维具有较好结合性的DCPD树脂，用其制备出一种综合性能优异的玻璃纤维增强PDCPD基复合材料。通过动态接触角、90?拉伸强度和层间剪切强度实验，测定了不同树脂与玻璃纤维之间的粘附力，提供了玻璃纤维与不同树脂界面性能差异。结果表明，SCB-600 DCPD树脂与玻璃纤维的结合性较优，动态接触角为60.35??0.3?，90?拉伸强度为(42.3?1.6) MPa，层间剪切强度为(61.3?3.2) MPa，与1564环氧树脂相当。进一步优化了DCPD树脂质量分数，当树脂质量分数为30%?2%时，SCB-600 DCPD复合材料具有相对最优的力学性能，材料拉伸强度为(1180.1?4.1) MPa，弯曲强度为(1060.4?4.6) MPa，缺口冲击强度为(145.3?4.8) KJ/m2。其弯曲和拉伸强度与玻璃纤维增强环氧树脂基复合材料的性能基本相当，但缺口冲击强度优于1564环氧树脂。     

Study of epoxy and epoxy–cyanate networks thermal degradation to predict materials lifetime in use conditions

Composite materials are used more and more for aeronautical applications and they have to be as thermally stable as possible. The thermostability of carbon‐fiber/epoxy–cyanate composites elaborated with an autoadhesive and autoextinguish prepreg were tested. Dynamical and isothermal aging tests were carried out to evaluate the composite thermal stability. Thermal degradation products were identified by chromatography/mass spectrometry analysis and the results obtained were compared with data known on the material network structure. The physicochemical network structure evolutions and the thermal aging data are correlated with the interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) mechanical results. For epoxy–cyanate composites, cracking appears after a longer time of aging than for epoxy composites. This new epoxy–cyanate material isothermal stability seems to be good and particularly good if it was postcured after processing. The comparison of chemical, mechanical, and crack formation results obtained by accelerated aging tests allowed us to determine models to predict long‐term behavior. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
