Fiber Fabric

The carbon fiber mat preforms are prepared by an air laid method with different fiber lengths of 10mm, 30mm and 50mm to characterize the resultant discontinuous composites. The composites are manufactured by a vacuum assisted resin infusion (VaRI) molding technique with the use of epoxy resins to investigate the effects of carbon fiber length on their physical and mechanical properties. The void content and thickness of the composites decrease with the increase in the fiber length at the same VaRI processing conditions. The tensile, flexural, impact properties of the composites are improved by increasing the fiber length in the textile preforms. By comparing with those of carbon fiber fabric reinforced composites, the discontinuous composites demonstrate the excellent performance in strength and modulus in spite of lower fiber volume fraction.

The modal properties of carbon fiber woven fabric (with fiber orientation of 45°/-45°) / epoxy resin composites with different fiber volume fraction were studied by using single input and single output free vibration of cantilever beam hammering modal analysis method. The effect of different fiber volume fraction on the modal parameters of laminated composites was analyzed. The experimental results show that with the fiber volume fraction increasing, the natural frequency of laminated composites becomes larger and damping ratio becomes smaller. The fiber volume fraction smaller, the peak value of natural frequency becomes lower and the attenuating degree of acceleration amplitude becomes faster.

The Matrix

Propagation of ultrasonic wave in Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) is greatly influenced by the material’s matrix, resins and fiber volume ratio. Laser ultrasonic broadband spectral technique has been demonstrated for porosity and fiber volume ratio extraction on unidirection aligned CFRP laminates. Porosity in the matrix materials can be calculated by longitudinal wave attenuation and accurate fiber volume ratio can be derived by combined velocity through the high strength carbon fiber and the matrix material with further consideration of porosity effects. The results have been benchmarked by pulse-echo ultrasonic tests, gas pycnometer and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The potentials and advantages of the laser ultrasonic technique as a non-destructive evaluation method for CFRP carbon fiber volume fraction evaluation were demonstrated.

Composite Models

Modeling composites can be an effective way to understand how a part will perform without requiring the destruction of costly specimens. By combining artificial fiber entanglement with manufacturing process simulation, a method was developed to create fiber bundle models using entanglement to control the fiber volume fraction. This fiber entanglement generation uses three parameters, probability of swapping (p_(r_S )), swapping radius standard deviation (r_(σ_S )), and the swapping plane spacing (l_S), to control the amount of entanglement within the fiber bundle. A parametric study was conducted and found that the more entanglement within a fiber bundle, the more compression mold pressure required to compact the fiber bundle to the same fiber volume fraction as that required for a less entangled bundle. This artificial fiber entanglement and manufacturing process simulation method for creating fiber bundles shows the potential to be able to create bundles with controlled final volume fraction using a desired mold compression pressure.

A study on dynamic mechanical properties of carbon fiber plain woven fabric (with fiber orientation of 30°/-60°) / epoxy resin laminated composites with different fiber volume fraction was carried out. The test method is single input single output free vibration of cantilever beam hammering modal analysis method. The effect of different fiber volume fraction on the modal parameters of laminated composites was analyzed. The experimental results show that with the fiber volume fraction increasing, the natural frequency of laminated composites becomes larger and damping ratio becomes smaller. The fiber volume fraction is greater, the peak value of natural frequency becomes higher and the attenuating degree of acceleration’ amplitude becomes slower.
