Delamination is one of the important damage modes in the fiber-reinforced composite laminates. The interlaminar fracture toughness is the key parameter in delamination failure analysis of composites. The stress analysis by a finite element modeling has shown that the shear stress is very large near the ply splicing area. So the delamination failure is mainly dependent on the mode II fracture toughness. A new way of loading in tensile testing is proposed for the measurement of mode II fracture toughness. Specific specimen with splicing plies has been designed and used for the experiment. Testing study on the carbon-fiber-reinforced laminate with ply splicing was performed. Steady crack propagation has been seen by the tensile testing of the specimen. Mode II fracture toughness GIIC of the laminate has been determined by the experiment data analysis. The experiment and numerical analysis shows that the tensile testing for the measurement of mode II interlaminar fracture toughness is feasible.

Interlaminar and intralaminar fracture behavior of carbon fiber reinforced composites have been experimentally studied. Unidirectional, woven reinforcement and thermoplastic and thermoset polymer matrix laminates have been characterized using double cantilever beam (DCB) and end notch flexure (ENF) specimens for Mode-I and Mode-II fracture toughness, respectively and compact tension (CT) specimens for intralaminar fracture. AS4/PEEK, AS4/8552 and AGP193PW/8552 laminates have been characterized in this study. The fracture toughness determined from the experimental data could be related to the constituents and reinforcements. It has been observed between the two UD laminates, AS4/PEEK exhibit higher fracture resistance under both interlaminar and intralaminar fracture. Woven reinforcement is found to show higher mode-II interlaminar fracture toughness.
