The thermoset composite inserts in this study were carbon fiber/epoxy (CF/Epoxy) prepreg sheets. The injected molded part was glass fiber contained phenolic resin (GF/PF). The CF/Epoxy was placed in the mold cavity prior to injecting GF/PF onto the inserted injection molded CF/Epoxy specimens. The role of adhesion between the inserted part and injected resin on the mechanical properties was evaluated by 3 point bending and impact tests. In addition, the effect of prepreg orientation on the mechanical properties of the prepreg inserted-injection molding system was investigated. It was found that the prepreg with unidirectional orientation significantly improved flexural and impact strength of the inserted injection molding composites, providing better support and resistance to bending and impact loading. The main failure modes of the specimens were structural and adhesive failure.展开更多

Without using the existing tedious GLS calibration procedures,the proposed method directly establishes a mapping between the 3D coordinates of the laser spots on the object surface and the control voltages of the scanner. A single-hidden layer feedforward neural network(SLFN) is employed to model the mapping. By projecting a dense grid of laser spots on the object to be marked and simultaneously taking only one image, the SLFN model is trained in minutes via a linear solving mechanism. Experiments demonstrate that the trained SLFN model has a good generalization performance for marking 3D target curves. The 3D laser marking errors on experimental objects are less than 0.5 mm. The proposed method is especially suitable for on-site use and can be conveniently extended to multiple GLSs for marking large complex objects.展开更多

To get the resin composition for the high functional substrate material with low moisture absorption and high glass transition temperature (Tg) simultaneously, a fluorenyl "Cardo" epoxy was incorporated into novolac cyanate ester resin. As an optimum curing agent for the fiuorenyl epoxy, methyl nadic anhydride (MNA) was selected. Silica powders as fillers were added into the resin composition. The partial replacement of the cyanate ester resin with the fluorenyl epoxy could reduce the moisture absorption with keeping high glass transition temperature over 300 ℃. The laminate, which was fabricated from prepregs made with 40 wt% silica-filled resin composition and glass fabric, showed high Tg of 317 ℃ and low moisture absorption of 0.57%.展开更多

The mechanical properties and failure behavior of 0 and 90 degree CF/Nylon 6 and CF/Epoxy laminates were discussed based on the fiber volume fraction, fiber distribution, void content, interfacial properties, transversal tensile strength and fracture toughness. The effects of fiber volume fraction, fiber distribution, void content and their hybrid effect on the flexural properties were investigated. Step-by-step observation and scanning electron microscope observation of laminates after flexural tests were employed to analyze the fracture process.展开更多

For comparison, the epoxy resin system with petroleum sourced hardener methylhexahydrophthalicanhydride (MHHPA) was also examined. The curing behaviour and mechanism were investigated by non-isothermal differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) analysis and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra. The results showed that the curing course of bio-based epoxy resin system containing RAM included two stages, which were the reaction between the free carboxyl group of RAM and oxirane ring under the acceleration of IMA, and the main reaction attributed to the reaction between anhydride and oxirane. According to Kissinger method, the reaction activation energy (E,) of two stages were 68.9 and 86.5kJmo1-1, respectively. The Eo of EP/MHHPA and EP/IMA resin system were 81.04 and 77.9kJmol-I. The processing property of EP/RAM/IMA system, i.e. the relationship between viscosity-temperature-time, was characterized by cone-plate viscometer aim to decide the processing parameter ofprepreg preparation. The effect of RAM content on mechanical performance and dynamic mechanical property was investigated. Noteworthily, compared with the laminates with EP/MHHPA as matrix, the laminates with RAM as hardeners achieved a 44%, 73% and 70℃ increase in bending strength, bending modulus and the glass transition temperature, respectively, due to the bulky hydrogenated phenanthrene ring structure incorporated into the cross-linking networks. When the fiber volume fraction reached 47%, the mechanical property of the laminates prepared with hot melt prepreg was superior or comparable to that of composites with pure petroleum sourced matrix. RAM as cross-linking agent of epoxy resin holds a great potential to satisfy the requirement of composites such as structure and secondary structure parts preparation.展开更多

文摘Hydrogen-powered aircraft,as a cutting-edge exploration of clean-energy air transportation,impose more stringent requirements for lightweight hydrogen storage due to the limitations of aircraft weight and volume.Composite hydrogen storage cylinders have become one of the preferred solutions for hydrogen storage systems in hydrogen-powered aircraft due to their light weight and high strength.However,during the automated placement of high-stiffness thermoplastic composites(T700/PEEK),fibers may buckle or break in the head section.As the head radius decreases,the overlap of adjacent tows increases,resulting in an increase in the thickness of the polar pores,which is contrary to the light-weighting requirements.To solve this problem,this paper derives the trajectory algorithm as a manufacturing process limitation when thermoplastic fiber bundles are laid without wrinkles,provides a definition of the overlap rate between adjacent fibers,and the effect of different ellipsoid ratios of head profile changes on the overlap of fiber bundles is investigated.The larger the ellipsoid ratio of the prolate ellipsoid is,the smaller the overlap of gaps generated by neighboring fiber bundles is,and the overlap at the pole holes is also smaller,while the change of the oblate ellipsoid is not significant.The prolate ellipsoid has greater application and research value than the oblate ellipsoid in terms of processability,which is of great research significance for the design and fabrication of thermoplastic composite hydrogen storage cylinders for hydrogen-powered aircraft.
