In this paper, carbon fiber reinforced resin matrix composites were produced by stacking eight pieces of carbon fiber woven plain fabric and subjected to accelerated ageing. Accelerated ageing was carried out in oven at 180°C for three different time intervals (60 hours, 120 hours and 180 hours). The influence of different ageing time intervals at 180°C on tensile properties of laminated composites was examined, compared with the composites without aging. The appearance and damage forms of these laminated composites were investigated. The results revealed that the tensile strength of the laminates declined significantly after long term accelerated aging at 180°C. The average tensile strengths of composite samples aged 60 hours, 120 hours, and 180 hours period of time at 180°C are 80.36%, 79.82%, 76.57% of average tensile strength of composite samples without aging, respectively. The high temperature accelerated aging makes the resin macromolecular structure in the composites changed, and then the adhesive force between fiber bundles and resin declines rapidly which result in the tensile strength of composites aged decrease. This research provides a useful reference for long term durability of laminated/epoxy resin composites.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the tensile property of laminated epoxy resin composites reinforced by carbon fiber plain woven fabric after accelerated aging for different period of time at 150°C. For this purpose, the tensile tests of laminated resin composite samples without aging and aged 60 hours, 120 hours, 180 hours, at 150°C were carried out. The damage forms of composite samples tested were investigated. The experiment result indicates that the accelerated aging process has an obvious effect on the tensile strength of composite samples. The average tensile strengths of composite samples aged 60 hours, 120 hours, and 180 hours period of time at 150°C are 87.31%, 88.61%, 79.05% of average tensile strength of composite samples without aging, respectively. The observation of the damage form of samples tested shows that when accelerated aging, the resin in the composite samples is damaged and the adhesive force between fiber bundles and epoxy resin decline, which makes the ability of fiber and resin bearing the tensile load together decreases.

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.

In this paper, the tensile strength of 3-dimension-4-direction braided/epoxy resin composites after accelerated aging for different period of time at 150°C was investigated. The tensile tests of 3-dimension-4-direction braided/epoxy resin composite samples without aging and aged 60 hours, 120 hours, 180 hours, at 150°C were carried out. The damage forms of braided composite samples tested were investigated. The experiment result indicates that the accelerated aging process at 150°C has some effect on the tensile strength of braided composite samples. The average tensile strengths of composite samples aged 60 hours, 120 hours, and 180 hours period of time at 150°C are 92.44%, 91.62% and 84.91% of average tensile strength of braided composite samples without aging, respectively. This means that the tensile strength will be decreased when the aging period of time increases at 150°C. The damage form of samples tested shows that when accelerated aging, the resin in the composite samples is damaged, which makes the adhesive force between fiber bundles and epoxy resin decline, so that the ability of fiber and resin bearing the tensile load together decreases.

Heating Period

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the tensile property of laminated epoxy resin composites reinforced by carbon fiber plain woven fabric with different heating period of time at relatively high temperature. For this purpose, the tensile tests of laminated resin composites are carried out at 150°C and 180°C with 15 minutes, 10 hours and 30 hours heating period of time, respectively. The reasons for the variations of tensile property of these composites with different heating period of time at 150°C and 180°C are analyzed. At 150°C and 180 °C，with heating period of time increasing the tensile strength of samples keep the same level. However at 180 °C the average tensile strength of samples is decreased by 14.95% compared with that at 150°C and the variation coefficient (CV) of tensile strengths at 180°C is much more than that at 150°C. These show that the tensile strength of resin laminated composites is sensitive at high temperature, although the tensile strength of resin laminated composites keeps the same level at same temperature with different heating period of time. The reason of the tensile strength of resin laminated composites decreased at high temperature is that resin has been damaged，which losing the adhesion of fiber and resin, so that these make resin and fiber can not bear the tensile load together. The research results will provide a basic reference for the application of plain woven fabric reinforced laminated resin composites with long using period of time at high temperature.

The tensile strength of 3-dimension-4-direction braided/epoxy resin composites after accelerated aging for different period of time at 180°C was investigated. The tensile tests of 3-dimension-4-direction braided/epoxy resin composite samples without aging and aged 60 hours, 120 hours, 180 hours, at 180°C were carried out. The damage forms of braided composite samples tested were investigated. The experiment result indicates that the accelerated aging process at 180°C has obvious effect on the tensile strength of braided composite samples. The average tensile strengths of composite samples aged 60 hours, 120 hours, and 180 hours period of time at 180°C are 86.29%, 88.59% and 84.12% of average tensile strength of braided composite samples without aging, respectively. This means that the tensile strength of aged braided composites will be decreased. The damage form of samples tested shows that after aging for a long time at 180°C, the resin is damaged badly and becomes brittle which make the bonding force between fiber and resin decrease. This is the reason of the decrease of tensile strength of composites after accelerated aging at 180°C.

Aramid/Al2O3/epoxy resin laminated composites were fabricated using ultrasonic mixing and casting technique. This novo material could be exhibited to the ideal mechanical properties such as high tensile strength, hardness, flexural strength and lightweight which may be used to replace metal parts in vehicles. Moreover, Al2O3 powder was mixed to epoxy resin to improve the scratch resistance. To improve the bending force and interaction between Al2O3 powder phase and epoxy resin phase, the ultrasonic mixing was used for fabricating these laminate composites. The physicals and mechanical properties such as density, hardness, impact test, wear resistance and tensile strength of the composites samples were investigated. It was found that the amounts of percent by volume of the Al2O3 have affected the properties of the laminated composites. Furthermore, microstructures of specimens were also investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM). From the results, SEM images showed good distribution and adhesion between reinforced phase and epoxy resin matrix phase.

This paper first presented an experimental study on water absorption and tensile properties of basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP) laminates with different specimen thicknesses (i.e., 1, 2, and 4 mm) subjected to 60 °C deionized water or alkaline solution for an ageing time up to 180 days. The degradation mechanism of BFRP laminates in solution immersion was also explored combined with micro-morphology analysis by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM). The test results indicated that the water absorption and tensile properties of BFRP laminates were dramatically influenced by specimen thickness. When the BFRP laminates with different thicknesses were immersed in the solution for the same ageing time, the water absorption of the specimens decreased firstly before reaching their peak water absorption and then increased in the later stage with the increase of specimen thickness, while the tensile strength retention sustaining increased as specimen thickness increased. The reason is that the thinner the specimen, the more severe the degradation. In this study, a new accelerated ageing method was proposed to predict the long-term water absorption and tensile strength of BFRP laminates. The accelerated factor of the proposed method was determined based on the specimen thickness. The proposed method was verified by test results with a good accuracy, indicating that the method could be used to predict long-term water absorption and tensile strength retention of BFRP laminates by considering specimen thickness in accelerating tests.
