Process development of pre-impregnated hybrid thin-ply composites

Thin-ply composites, obtained with recently developed fiber spreading techniques, rapidly gained industrial interest because they offer a large composite design freedom, and lead to a composite tensile strength that is close to that of the individual fiber ...

A model for the consolidation of hybrid textiles considering air entrapment, dissolution and diffusion

Véronique Michaud, Vincent Werlen, Christian Rytka

A new model is proposed for the consolidation of hybrid textiles, in which air entrapment and dissolution are considered. One of the key parameters is tow permeability, which is described by the analytical model of Gebart and validated at very high fibre v ...

Mode I interlaminar fracture of carbon epoxy laminates: Effects of ply thickness

John Botsis, Thomas Gmür, Joël Cugnoni, Guillaume Frossard

In this work, the influence of ply thickness on strain energy release rate (ERR) in delamination of carbon epoxy laminates is addressed. Specimens with three ply thicknesses: 0.030, 0.075 and 0.150 mm are tested. While the ERR at onset of crack propagation ...

Photocatalytic evaluation of TiO2/nylon systems prepared at different impregnation times

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi

TiO2/nylon fabrics were investigated for methanol degradation under UV light irradiation. TiO2 Degussa P-25 was supported on nylon by immersing the nylon in sol-gel TiO2 and silicone. The TiO2 layers on the nylon were explored as a function of the time of ...

Towards Textile-Based Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic Nanocomposites: Melt Spun Polypropylene-Montmorillonite Nanocomposite Fibers

John Christopher Plummer, Martyn Douglas Wakeman, Chrystèle Houphouet-Boigny Favre

The present work is aimed at assessing the feasibility of integrating thermoplastic polypropylene nanocomposite matrices into conventional fiber-reinforced composites based on hybrid textiles that incorporate both the matrix and glass-fiber yarns, in order ...
