Abstract Rule of mixtures (RoMs) of composite materials is continuously modified according to different component materials and their composition forms to play the role of theoretical verification and evaluation. This paper studied the regular relationship between the bonding surface and mechanical performance of the composites. The three bonding surface designs were made into PLA/EP test samples by 3D printing technology. The tensile and bending properties of the composite materials were proved to be stronger than the average of those of their component materials. The mechanical properties show regular changes with the bonding surface and structural design. The bonding surface between components is an important reference information that cannot be ignored for the performance prediction and adjustment of laminated composite materials.

Nacre has a complex hierarchical microarchitecture that spans over multiple length scales from nanoscale to macroscale. Its structures are optimized leading to extraordinary mechanical performance and energy absorption. Nacre's special characteristics of the self-assembly method have attracted the interest of material scientists to develop laminated composite materials, molecular scale self-assembly and biomineralization. Nanoindentation testing can determine a material's anisotropic properties through a single indentation. In the present study, nanoindentation stress–strain curves were used to characterize the complete mechanical behavior of nacre of abalone shell. A differential constitutive equation was developed with time-dependent spring constants k and viscosities η. Furthermore, to describe the complex viscoelastic behavior of abalone nacre, a descriptive representation of the linear viscoelasticity law for the multilayer matrix was formulated. A qualitative model for the relationship between nacre structure and mechanical properties of nacre may help develop bionic composite materials for micro-aircraft, bionic tribology, bionic medical apparatus and bionic organs (tissue engineering).

ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the mechanical performance of laminated composite materials (fiberglass, carbon, sisal, palm fiber) in epoxy matrix as reinforcement in wood particleboards of Pinus sp. with bicomponent polyurethane resin from castor oil. Modulus of elasticity (MOE) and modulus of rupture (MOR) were investigated using a three-point bending test. Single-layered laminated plates were used to reinforce traction of specimens obtained from boards. MOE and MOR of materials developed without reinforcements exceeded limits in ABNT standards both NBR 12810-2:2002 and A208.1:199, proving therefore their feasibility. In all investigated cases, inclusion of reinforcements led to higher values for both MOE and MOR. Composites in fiberglass presented the best results.

Photochromic materials with anti-water properties have impressed practical values, but their applications are severely hindered by poor stability and slow colour-switching rate. Inspired by the superhydrophobicity of lotus leaf and...
