The Matrix

Aluminum tri-hydroxide (ATH) and montmorillonite (MMT) are capable to enhance flame retardancy of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP). Nevertheless, the combination of both flame retardant fillers on changes in the mechanical properties of GFRP is not yet known. The characterization of flexural strength and scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation on GFRP composite has been done. The result of flexural properties testing shows that the addition of ATH or MMT or a combination of both on the GFRP causes a decrease in flexural strength. GFRP with increased ATH loading causes an increase in elastic modulus. Contrarily, the MMT addition causes a decrease in the elastic modulus of the GFRP composite. SEM results on the fractured samples show that the high content of ATH or MMT in the UP tends to agglomerate thus showing visible holes that were formed from the filler particles pulled out from the matrix.

The addition of alkali-resistant glass fiber to concrete effectively suppresses the damage evolution such as microcrack initiation, expansion, and nucleation and inhibits the development and penetration of microcracks, which is very important for the long-term stability and safety of concrete structures. We conducted indoor flat tensile tests to determine the occurrence and development of cracks in alkali-resistant glass fiber reinforced concrete (AR-GFRC). The composite material theory and Krajcinovic vector damage theory were used to correct the quantitative expressions of the fiber discontinuity and the elastic modulus of the concrete. The Weibull distribution function was used and an equation describing the damage evolution of the AR-GFRC was derived. The constitutive equation was validated using numerical parameter calculations based on the elastic modulus, the fiber content, and a performance test of polypropylene fiber. The results showed that the tensile strength and peak strength of the specimen were highest at a concrete fiber content of 1%. The changes in the macroscopic stress–strain curve of the AR-GFRC were determined and characterized by the model. The results of this study provide theoretical support and reference data to ensure safety and reliability for practical concrete engineering.

The cross-section of an injection-molded plate of foamed long glass fiber reinforced polypropylene was analyzed using scanning electron microscopy. The distribution of the glass fiber orientations and the microcellular structure in the thickness direction were also studied. A multilayer representative volume element was constructed based on the fiber orientation tensors and the cell distribution. Nested and two-step homogenization methods based on the Mori–Tanaka and Voigt models were used to homogenize each layer of the representative volume element. Finally, classic laminate theory was used to obtain the effective elastic modulus of the material. The computed elastic moduli of the single-layer and multilayer representative volume element models with different loading directions predicted by the homogenization and finite element methods were compared with the experimental results. We found that the constructed multilayer representative volume element model can predict the elastic moduli of the foamed glass fiber reinforced polypropylene effectively and that the predicted results were accurate and stable.

Abstract Glass fiber reinforced plastic composites are widely used as structural materials. These two phase materials can be tailored to suit a large variety of applications. A better understanding of the properties of the fiber-matrix ‘interphase’ can enable more optimum design of composites. The interphase is a microscopic region around the fiber and hence nano-scale investigation using nano-indentation techniques is appropriate to determine mechanical property variations. In this study the atomic force microscope with the Hysitron indenter has been used to determine the variation of the elastic modulus across the interphase for different silane coated glass fiber reinforced polyester composites. A comparative study of the elastic modulus variation in the interphase is reported. The results are discussed in the light of the current limitations of the instrumentation and analysis.
