The effect of process parameters and the orientation of the cladding layer on the mechanical properties of 316L stainless steel components manufactured by laser metal deposition (LMD) was investigated. High aspect-ratio walls were manufactured with layers of a 4.5 mm wide single-cladding track to study the microstructure and mechanical properties along the length and the height of the wall. Samples for the tensile test (according to ASTM E-8M-04) were machined from the wall along both the direction of the layers and the direction perpendicular to them. Cross-sections of the LMD samples were analyzed by optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The orientation of the growing grain was observed. It was associated with the thermal gradient through the building part. A homogeneous microstructure between consecutive layers and some degree of microporosity was observed by SEM. Uniaxial tension tests were performed on samples extracted from the wall in perpendicular and parallel directions. Results for ultimate tensile strength were similar in both cases and with the wrought material. The σ0.2 were similar in both cases but slightly superior to the wrought material.

In this work, buckypaper composed of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) was prepared through a vacuum filtration process. The effect of MWCNT aspect ratio on the buckypaper performance was investigated. The freestanding and highly flexible buckypaper can be used as a sensor to attach on a complex surface monitoring the strain and temperature at the critical area. The mechanical properties of the buckypaper were examined using the tensile and nanoindentation tests. The strain and temperature sensitivities of the buckypaper were evaluated through the four-point bending and thermal chamber tests, respectively. In addition, the microstructure and thermal stability of the buckypaper were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), respectively. Experimental results showed that the mechanical properties such as Young’s modulus, tensile strength, fracture strain, and hardness of the buckypaper made of high aspect ratio MWCNTs were significantly superior to the buckypaper consisted of low aspect ratio MWCNTs, while the strain and temperature sensitivities of the buckypaper composed of low aspect ratio MWCNTs were better than that of the buckypaper made of high aspect ratio MWCNTs.

AbstractHigh aspect ratio microstructures (HARMs) with a height of hundreds of micrometers and a width of a few tens of micrometers present high promise in a number of challenging fields. At LSU, a number of applications are being developed in which nickel HARMs are electroplated on metal surfaces (mold insert fabrication for the LIGA process, HARMs on mechanical seal faces, HARMs on heat exchange surfaces, etc.). In some of these applications, the HARMs are subjected to high stresses and the mechanical properties are particularly important. These properties can be used to adjust processing parameters to optimize properties of the HARMS.This paper presents a method for measuring the strength properties of cantilevered nickel HARMs constructed by LIGA. Experimentally measured values are reported for modulus of rupture (1280 MPa), Young's modulus (153 GPa) and Knoop hardness (500 Hk) for HARMs with an overplated base. SEM micrographs clearly indicate that failure of the beams is brittle and most frequently occurs at the interface of the beam and overplated base.

To meet the maximum potential of the mechanical properties of carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP), stress transfer between the carbon fibers through the polymer matrix must be improved. A recent promising approach reportedly used reinforcing particles as fillers dispersed in the resin. Carbon based fillers are an excellent candidate for such reinforcing particles due to their intrinsically high mechanical properties, structure and chemical nature similar to carbon fiber and high aspect ratio. They have shown great potential in increasing the strength, elastic modulus and other mechanical properties of interest of CFRPs. However, a percolation threshold of ~1% of the carbon-based particle concentration in the base resin has generally been reported, beyond which the mechanical properties deteriorate due to particle agglomeration. As a result, the potential for further increase of the mechanical properties of CFRPs with carbon-based fillers is limited. We report a significant increase in the strength and elastic modulus of CFRPs, achieved with a novel reinforced thermoset resin that contains high loadings of epoxy-reacted fluorographene (ERFG) fillers. We found that the improvement in mechanical performance of CFRPs was correlated with increase in ERFG loading in the resin. Using a novel thermoset resin containing 10 wt% ERFG filler, CFRPs fabricated by wet layup technique with twill weaves showed a 19.6% and 17.7% increase in the elastic modulus and tensile strength respectively. In addition, because of graphene’s high thermal conductivity and high aspect ratio, the novel resin enhanced CFRPs possessed 59.3% higher through-plane thermal conductivity and an 81-fold reduction in the hydrogen permeability. The results of this study demonstrate that high loadings of functionalized particles dispersed in the resin is a viable path towards fabrication of improved, high-performance CFRP parts and systems.
