Modern multifunctional thermoanalytical complexes equipped with computers are inherently mobile laboratories. They are able to solve a wide variety of problems in materials science and technology, both in applied research and in the quality control of products supplied to manufacturing enterprises. Using the example of experimental data obtained in the study of the curing processes of thermosetting semi-finished products (prepregs) of polymer composite materials (PCM), the methodological possibilities of modern devices for thermal analysis are shown. They allow investigating and predicting changes in the technological properties of prepregs in a wide temperature range.

Abstract MetaboLights is the first general-purpose open-access curated repository for metabolomic studies, their raw experimental data and associated metadata, maintained by one of the major open-access data providers in molecular biology. Increases in the number of depositions, number of samples per study and the file size of data submitted to MetaboLights present a challenge for the objective of ensuring high-quality and standardized data in the context of diverse metabolomic workflows and data representations. Here, we describe the MetaboLights curation pipeline, its challenges and its practical application in quality control of complex data depositions. Database URL: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/metabolights

Mechanical characterization of newly developed polymers and composites are the basic measurements that are used to check the potential of the material towards its usage in various applications. Young researchers who are new to the field of materials science often find it difficult in selecting the specific testing standards for their novel materials. This review article provides a detailed explanatory of the various ASTM standards that are used for analyzing the basic mechanical properties of polymer composite materials. The standard dimensions of the test specimens and the mechanical testing parameters that are universally followed in different testing phases are illustrated for the ease of research.

ABSTRACTClay-polymer nanoparticulate composite materials are evaluated by the X-ray diffraction technique. The basal plane spacing provided information about the degree of intercalation and exfoliation of the 2: 1 layered clay structure. Both intercalation and exfoliation are controlled by the identity of the polymer and the clay:polymer ratio.

The main methods (pressing and winding) of the processing of hybrid polymer composites to obtain items were examined. Advantages and disadvantages of the methods were noted. Good combinations of different-module fibers (carbon, glass, boron, organic) in hybrid polymer materials are described, which allow one to prepare materials with high compression strength on the one hand, and to increase fracture energy of samples and impact toughness on the other hand.

Axial Heat

In this study a thermal analysis is performed on the hot dip-coating process where solidification of metal occurs on a bar moving through a finite molten bath. A continuum model is considered that accounts for important transport mechanisms such as axial heat diffusion, buoyancy, and shear-induced melt motion in the bath. A numerical solution procedure is developed, and its predictions are compared with those of an analytical approximate solution, as well as available experimental data. The predictions of the numerical scheme are in good agreement with the experimental data. The results of the approximate solution, however, exhibit significant disagreement with the data, which is attributed to the simplifying assumptions used in its development. Parametric effects of the bath geometry, and initial and boundary temperatures and solid velocity, as characterized by the Reynolds number, Grashof number, and Stefan numbers, are presented.

Brittle Fracture Criteria

Abstract The increasing application of composite materials in the construction of machines causes strong need for modelling and evaluating their strength. There are many well known hypotheses used for homogeneous materials subjected to monotone and cyclic loading conditions, which have been verified experimentally by various authors. These hypotheses should be verified also for composite materials. This paper provides experimental and theoretical results of such verifications for bimaterial structures with interfacial cracks. Three well known fracture hypotheses of: Griffith, McClintock and Novozhilov were chosen. The theoretical critical load values arising from each hypotheses were compared with the experimental data including uni and multi-axial loading conditions. All tests were carried out with using specially prepared specimens of steel and PMMA.

A comparative analysis of typical stress-strain diagrams obtained for in-plain shear of the 25 unidirectional and cross-ply reinforced polymer matrix composites under quasi-static loading was carried out. Three of them were tested in the framework of this study, and the experimental data on other materials were taken from the literature. The analysis of the generalized shear-strength curves showed that most of the tested materials exhibit the similar deformation pattern depending on their initial shear modulus: a linear section is observed at the beginning of loading, whereas further increase of the load decreases the slope of the curve reaching the minimum in the failure point. For the three parameters (end point the linear part, maximum reduced deviation of the diagram, tangent shear modulus at the failure point) characterizing the individual features of the presented stress-strain diagrams, approximating their dependences on the value of the reduced initial shear modulus are obtained. At the characteristic points of the deformation diagrams, boundary conditions are determined that can be used to find the parameters of the approximating functions. A condition is proposed for determination of the end point of the linear section on the experimental stress-strain curve, according to which the maximum deviation between the experimental and calculated (according to Hooke’s law) values of the shear stress in this section is no more than 1%, thus ensuring rather high accuracy of approximation on the linear section of the diagram. The results of this study are recommended to use when developing universal and relatively simple in structure approximating functions that take into account the characteristic properties of the experimental curves of deformation of polymer composite materials under in-plane shear of the sheet. The minimum set of experimental data is required to determine the parameters of these functions.
