Tailored Capsule Based Self-Healing for Epoxy Matrix Composites

Sam Neuser

Self-healing materials are a novel class of materials able to repair structural or, more generally, functional damage to a part. They hence have the potential to improve reliability and cost effectiveness, because failure or loss of functionality may be po ...

EPFL2013

Solvent healing of thermoset polymer matrices was suggested as an efficient and cost-effective alternative to other encapsulated self-healing systems. However, self-healing efficiency is not guaranteed over time. We report here on the autonomic self-healin ...

Processing of Sustainable Cellular Biocomposites

Carole Boissard

Petroleum-based polymers and composites are commonly used in a wide variety of application fields. However ecological concerns, increasing oil prices and dwindling natural resources explain why nowadays industrial and public interest is more than ever focu ...

UV-cured Epoxy for Adhesion in Steel Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites

Basile Golaz

This work addresses the development of composite materials that contain metallic load-bearing cords with the aim of combining outstanding mechanical performance with added functionality, including electrical conductivity, data transmission, and temperature ...

UV-curable epoxy primer for adhesion in steel reinforced polymer composites

Véronique Michaud, Basile Golaz

In continuous composite production, for example the continuous impregnation of steel wires or cords with a thermoplastic polyurethane matrix, an ideal and cost-effective solution to improve interfacial adhesion and durability would be to deposit and cure a ...

Epoxy-graphite Resistive Composites

Nathalie Sophie Adeline Serra

In this thesis, we proposed to study polymer-based thick-film resistors (TFRs) made of graphite particles dispersed in an epoxy matrix. Three main axes were investigated: formulation of the composites, characterization with the determination of electrical, ...

Size and synergy effects of nanofiller hybrids including graphene nanoplatelets and carbon nanotubes in mechanical properties of epoxy composites

We study mechanical reinforcement in a widely used epoxy matrix with the addition of graphene nanoplatelets (GnPs) and various mixture ratios of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with GnPs. Two different dimensions of GnPs were used with flake sizes of 5 mu m and 25 ...

UV-curable epoxy primer for adhesion between metallic oxides and thermoplastic polyurethane

Véronique Michaud, Basile Golaz

We report results on the development of an innovative fast-curing coupling method using a UV-curable epoxy primer based on a cycloaliphatic di-epoxide resin. The materials to bond are metallic wires and a thermoplastic polyurethane matrix. The curing kinet ...

Alginate beads and epoxy resin composites as candidates for microwave absorbers

Jutta Christine Wandrey

This paper presents a new composite material, which is developed by mixing calcium alginate spheres with commercially available epoxies Stycas 2850 FT (s2850) and Stycast W19 (W19). The resulting composite material is examined in terms of transmission and ...

Healing of epoxy resins can be accomplished using a combination of embedded ethyl phenylacetate (EPA) solvent loaded capsules and shape memory alloy (SMA) wires. Upon crack formation, the EPA solvent diffuses in the resin and induces swelling which tends t ...
