Properties Of Composites

In recent years, composite bearings are increasingly employed in marine and heavy load situations due to the specific properties of composites. However, for the tape winding composite bearings, the tension in process has not been studied in depth. In this study, a device was manufactured to apply tension to the process and the prepreg tape was T300/epoxy. Specimens with different tension values were selected for the experiment and the autoclave technology was applied to the curing process. Then, the appearance image and roundness of the bearing composites were acquired. Meanwhile, physical and mechanical properties of the specimen as well as the residual stress were measured. The experimental results show that the influence of tension in winding process on bearing composites is significant and the optimum tension can be defined. Subsequently, the article analyzes the function of the tension and it is concluded that the wrinkles and waves on the surface of the T300/epoxy bearing composites can be eliminated using proper method and the optimum tension should be determined through testing and experiment.

This article is focused on cement based composites. Two cements differing in mineralogical composition are utilised as main binder in composites mixtures. Results of measured physical parameters of studied materials are presented. For the sake of comparison, a reference material with Portland cement was also prepared. Basic physical properties (measured by water vacuum saturation method and by helium pycnometry), characterizations of pore system (determined by mercury porosimetry) and mechanical properties are the matter of this study. Composites show various open porosity; the results of open porosity of materials containing special cements show higher values, in comparison with composite based on Portland cement. This fact of course influences other material characteristics - mainly mechanical properties.

Properties Of Composites

The change of matrix and usage of the aluminum alloys designed for the metal forming in making the composite suspension allows to extend the processing possibility of this type of materials. The possibility of the metal forming of the composites obtained by mechanical mixing will extend the range of composite materials usage. Applying of the metal forming e.g. matrix forging, embossing, pressing or rolling, will allow to remove the incoherence of the structure created while casting and removing casting failures. In order to avoid the appearance of the casting failures the homogenization conditions need to be changed. Inserting the particles into the matrix influences on the shortening of the composite solidification. The type of the applied particles influenced the sedimentation process and reinforcement agglomeration in the structure of the composite. Opposite to the composites reinforced with one-phase particles applying the fasess mixture (glassy carbon and silicon carbide) triggered significant limitation in the segregation process while casting solidification. Inserting the particles into the AW-AlCu2SiMn matrix lowers the mechanical properties tension and impact value strength. The most beneficial mechanical properties were gained in case of heterofasess composites reinforced with the particle mixture of SiC and glass carbon. The chemical composition of the matrix material (AW-AlCu2SiMn) allows to increase additionally mechanical characteristics by the precipitation hardening reached through heat casting forming.

Properties Of Composites

One of the objectives of sustainable development in construction is the use of low-processed materials. They have a positive impact on the ecological balance of the building throughout the entire life cycle. Examples of such materials are materials of plant origin - straw, shives, cellulose fibers. They are used as thermal insulation or wall material. In recent years, hemp shives are increasingly used as a component of a lime-based composite, which performs the function of wall filling in timber frame constructions. The shives, due to the high porosity, determine the high thermal insulation properties of the composite. The physico-mechanical properties of the composite can be modified depending on various factors, including the ratio of hemp shives to the binder. The lime binder, in turn, can be modified by hydraulic and pozzolan additives. The paper presents mechanical properties (compressive and flexural strength) as well as physical properties (density, porosity, thermal conductivity coefficient, absorbability) of composites with various proportions of hemp shives of the Bialobrzeskie variety to the lime binder modified with Portland cement and metakaolinite.

Sintering Effect

Composites of calcinated bovine bone derived hydroxyapatite (HA) with 0.25, 0.5, 1, and 2 wt % La2O3 were prepared by sintering. The experimental results indicated that compression strength and microhardness of HA-La2O3 composites increase when the content of La2O3 and sintering temperature increase. The best mechanical properties were achieved after sintering at 1300°C. The results are in agreement with densification measurements and microstructure analysis.

Properties Of Composites

Zinc aluminum based matrix composites reinforced with SiC and Al2O3 particles have significant applications in the automobile field. Stir casting method followed by squeeze process was used for fabrication. ZA27 composites reinforced with SiC and Al2O3 particles (20-50µm) in various weight percentage (wt%) ranges from 0-10 in a step of 5 each was fabricated. OM, SEM and EDS analysis of microstructures obtained for matrix alloy and reinforced composites were performed in order to know the effect of varying wt% on physical and mechanical properties of composites. Squeeze casting technique shows better features such as fine microstructure as a result of low porosity and good bonding between matrix and reinforcement. Addition of reinforcements decreased the densities of matrix alloy. SiC reinforced composites showed better results as compared with Al2O3 reinforced ones. Hardness and ultimate tensile strength value of 10 wt% reinforced composites showed improved results.

The physical and mechanical properties of composites consisting of ZA27 alloy reinforced with nano-sized graphite particles were investigated with the main objective of understanding the effect of the nano particulate reinforcement. These properties were determined by measuring the density, hardness and tensile strength values. The microstructure of the ZA27-Graphite (Gr) nanocomposites was investigated using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results indicated that density values of nano graphite added nanocomposites (GANs) decrease with increasing graphite rate while porosity ratio increases. Also the UTS and Brinell hardness values decreased with increasing graphite content.

AbstractWood polymer composites (WPC) are widely used materials in different industries because of many application, processing and recycling advantages compared to traditional thermoplastic polymer composites containing mineral fillers [1]. However, the commercial success of these materials primarily depends on improvements in moisture performance, and ability to use recycled and waste material as a wood filler. The research regarding WPC is focused on the chemical interaction between dissimilar material components with an aim to provide strong adhesion to the surface of wood filler-polymer matrix [2]. The goal of this paper was to present results of investigations of exploitation properties of composites containing different plywood production industry byproducts and polypropylene. It was shown that modification of all composites with coupling agent maleated polypropylene (MAPP) considerably improve physical mechanical properties (tensile, flexural, impact strength) of WPC. MAPP (5 wt.%) additions also significantly improve water resistance of WPC. SEM investigations confirmed positive action of interfacial modifiers on strengthening of adhesion interaction between components wood and PP matrix that give considerable increase of exploitation properties of the WPC.

Rotor Structure

Rotor speed is one of the most important technical characteristics of the internal mixer. The effects of rotor speed on mixing process have been studied. In the experiments, three types of synchronous rotors which were two-wing synchronous rotor, four-wing synchronous rotor and six-wing synchronous rotor were used. The experimental results indicated that there was a proper speed of different rotor structure for mixing process. And along with the increase of rotor speed, the maximum power, the unit consumption of energy and discharging temperature increase, while the physical and mechanical properties of mixed rubber got a better value.
