Hybrid nanoparticles modified bisphenol A type epoxy/acid anhydride resin system applicable for filament winding forming process was studied using elastic core-shell rubber (CSR) nanoparticles with a large particle size (nearly 100 nm) and rigid nano-SiO2 particles with a small particle size (about 16 nm). The formulation, process properties, mechanical properties, thermal properties and microstructure of modified resin and its wound composite were studied. The results suggested that at the content of 10 phr CSR and 2 phr nano-SiO2, the resin system achieved optimum comprehensive performance. The viscosity of modified resin system was nearly 1000 mPa·s at 25 °C and service life was over 6 h. The resin tensile strength and modulus were 89 MPa and 3.5 GPa, while flexural strength and modulus reached 128 MPa and 3.2 GPa, respectively. The impact strength was 26.6 kJ·m−2, and the glass transition temperature (Tg) reached 145.9 °C. Modified epoxy resin enhanced the mechanical properties of carbon fiber reinforced wound composite. The tensile strength, tensile modulus and interlaminar shear strength were enhanced by 14.0%, 4.56% and 18.9%, respectively, compared with a composite based on unmodified resin. The above test results and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis suggest that the hybrid nanoparticles modified resin system was suitable for carbon fiber wet filament winding products.

The current paper deals with investigating the effect of two different fillers on the thermal and mechanical characteristics of epoxy-based composite. The filler used throughout the study are: charcoal and Pyrex, both of them are different in nature and have not been investigated thoroughly or even compared fairly in terms of their effect on polymer matrix. Further, they can be considered as a cheap filler, charcoal can be obtained from a simple pyrolysis process of plants (charcoal) and Pyrex waste can be collected easily. Both types are added to the selected matrix with volume percent ranged from 10 to 60 with increments of 10. To ensure a fair comparison, the particle size is fixed (is about 1.7 micrometer). The results showed that the epoxy thermal conductivity has enhanced by about two orders of magnitudes over the studied range of filler. In terms of mechanical properties, the charcoal improves the tensile strength about 84% at 60% volume fraction while the Pyrex effect is about 40% at the same filler level. On the contrast, the results of compressive strength do not show an appreciable improvement overall. It decreases by about 12% at 60% volume fraction of charcoal while increases about the same percent with Pyrex at the same filler level.

In this paper, Sb2O3/PP composite specimens were prepared by ball milling and melt blending. The effects of Sb2O3 particle size and filling amount on the toughening, reinforcing effect and crystallinity of PP composites were analyzed by notch impact test, tensile test, SEM, XRD and DSC characterization. The experimental results show that the filling of Sb2O3 particles can improve the mechanical properties and crystallization properties of Sb2O3/PP composites. With the increase of filling amount of Sb2O3 particles, the tensile strength and impact strength of Sb2O3/PP composite increased first and then decreased. When the content of Sb2O3 is 2 wt.%, the tensile strength and impact strength of Sb2O3/PP composites reach the maximum. When the filling amount is the same, the crystallization and mechanical properties of nanoSb2O3/PP composites are better than those of micron Sb2O3/PP composites.

The long-term effect of water immersion on the mechanical properties of CFRC composite grouting materials was studied by using five different carbon fiber contents (0, 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75%, and 1.00%). The direct shear and long-term immersion tests were performed based on the specified and optimum values of carbon fiber content, respectively. The results showed the following: (1) the application of carbon fiber significantly improved the shear resistance of CRFC composite grouting material by using “reinforcing” and “anchoring” actions. The shear strength of the specimen was increasing by 5.66%∼43.41% when the carbon fiber content increased from 0.25% to 1.00%. After a comprehensive analysis, the optimum carbon fiber content was found to be 0.75%. (2) The degradation in the compressive and tensile strength of CRFC composite specimens exhibited a consistent trend (i.e., a steep gradient was gradually followed by a gentle slope) under a long-term water immersion process. About 90% of the total degradation in the compressive and tensile strength has occurred in 90 immersion days (i.e., 16.05% and 18.45%, respectively). In comparison, the degradation in the tensile strength (20.05%) was slightly higher than the compressive strength (18.16%). (3) Under the long-term water immersion process: the properties of the specimens were gradually deteriorating, the carbon fibers were gradually reaching a fatigue stage, and the bonding properties of carbon fiber was decreasing, which resulted in a reduction in the compressive and tensile strength. The uniaxial compression failure mode changed from brittle to ductile, and the development of local failure was very noticeable. Based on the findings of this paper, groundwater has a significant impact on the mechanical properties of grouted rock mass such as dam foundations and abutments. Therefore, the degradation in the grouting materials has to be considered in practical cases.

A new type of polyimide, designated TriA X, has been developed for high-temperature composite applications. TriA X is a polymerized monomeric reactant (PMR)-type polyimide derived from 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (PMDA), 2-phenyl-4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether (p-ODA), and phenylethynyl phthalic anhydride (PEPA). The polymer has an asymmetric, nonplanar backbone, resulting in an amorphous structure and high toughness. In this work, a TriA X resin (with degree of polymerization n = 7 in the imide oligomer) was investigated for processability and performance in carbon fiber composites. Rheological measurements were performed on an oligomer with a low degree of imidization to understand the chemo-rheology of the resin system and determine a suitable B-staging temperature. A composite molding cycle was designed, which yielded fully consolidated woven carbon fiber laminates. Void contents in panels produced with this molding cycle were <0.1% as measured by image analysis (IA) of polished sections, and <0.2% as measured by X-ray micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). Matrix-dominated mechanical properties of composites fabricated with the TriA X polymer exceeded those of PMR-15 and AFR-PE-4 composites. These mechanical properties and a measured glass transition temperature of 367°C indicate potential for use of this resin system in high-temperature composites.

This paper focuses on the mechanical properties of carbon fiber cloth reinforced bamboos. Using the carbon fiber cloth to reinforce circularly the bamboo can protect dry bursting of the bamboos and improve its mechanical performances. A series of experiments were carried out to investigate the compressive strength, tensile strength and bending strength of bamboo reinforced with carbon fiber cloth. The mechanical performances of bamboos with and without reinforcing were compared and the efficient reinforcing method was suggested, with such method the compressive strength and bending strength of carbon fiber reinforced bamboos could be increased obviously compared with that of bamboos without reinforcing.

When the roving is winding on the die, the tension value may move away the nominal one that has been optimized by considering the quality and the mechanical properties of the wound composite parts. The variance of the tension value during winding from the nominal one strongly depends on the deposition head trajectory. The present work focuses on the planning of the winding trajectory for winding complex shape parts in composite material by a robotized cell. The planning of the winding trajectory should be based on the structural constraints of the robotized cell and on the technological requirements of the process. In particular, this work aims to study the conditions by which the value of the roving tension verges on the nominal one during winding. The developed planning logics and implemented by a CAD/CAM software have been validated by experimental tests. This work represents the first step towards the optimization of the winding trajectory.

This research has focused on the evaluation of raw materials that used in the wings of modern airplane. These materials either would be fiberglass, carbon-fiber or aramid based composites like Kevlar. These common materials have been selected and evaluated depending on experimental data obtained from mechanical tests. These tests include: hardness, tensile strength and bending stress. The tests based on ASTM standards for mechanical properties. The results show increasing in the hardness value of graphite-epoxy by 9% comparing with that of fiberglass and by 18% comparing with that of Kevlar-epoxy. The results also show an increasing in the maximum tensile strength of graphite-epoxy by 2.9 times to that of fiberglass and by 5.5 times to that of Kevlar-epoxy. Furthermore, the results of bending stress test show increasing of the maximum strength of Kevlar-epoxy by 30% comparing to that of glass fiber and by 75% comparing to that of graphite-epoxy.
