Bamboo is an eco-friendly material, it can be used in various applications such as bamboo housing, bamboo bridges, bamboo scaffolding, ply bamboo, bamboo furniture, and for defence applications. It has various advantages to be used as structural material. However, it has weaknesses such as crushing failure under extreme loading that need to be addressed. The objective of this research is to enhance bamboo bearing and bending capacity using various stiffeners. Experimental work done is to investigate the compressive strength, bending strength, bearing strength and tensile strength of raw local bamboo. Further analysis includes bending and bearing strength of raw bamboo and strengthen bamboo using Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) and Polyurethane (PU) Foams. From the test done, the bearing strength of raw bamboo Semantan with node is between 2.61 MPa to 3.14 MPa and for raw bamboo Semantan without node is between 0.28 MPa to 0.82 MPa, average bending strength of raw bamboo Semantan is 59 MPa. For strengthen bamboo with 4 layers of Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer, the bearing strength without node is between 1.59 MPa to 2.38 MPa, and the average bending strength is 62 MPa which is about 5% higher than raw bamboo.

E-glass fiber mat reinforced Unsaturated Polyester Resin (UPR)-based composites were fabricated by conventional hand lay-up technique. The fiber content was varied from 5 to 50% by weight. Mechanical properties (tensile and bending) of the fabricated composites were investigated. The tensile strength (TS) of the 5% and 50% fiber reinforced composites was 32 MPa and 72 MPa, respectively. Similarly, tensile modulus, bending strength and bending modulus of the composites were increased by the increase of fiber loading. Interfacial properties of the composites were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the results revealed that the interfacial bond between fiber and matrix was excellent.

Tooth Plate

Tooth-plate-glass-fiber hybrid sandwich (TFS) is a type of sandwich composites fabricated by vacuum-assisted resin infusion process, in which glass fiber facesheets reinforced by metal plate are connected to foam core through tooth nails. Bending properties and interlaminar properties of TFS beams with various foam densities were investigated by flexural tests and DCB (double cantilever beam) tests. The test results showed that by increasing the foam core density from 35 kg/m3 to 150 kg/m3, the peak strength of TFS beams significantly increased by 168% to 258% compared with similar sandwich beams with fibrous composite facesheets. With the change of foam density and span length, the main failure modes are core shear and facesheet indentation beneath the loading roller. The interlaminar strain energy release rates of TFS specimens also increased by increasing the density of the foam. In addition, an analytical model was used to predict the ultimate bending strength of TFS beams, which were in good accordance with the experimental results.

The Impact

In this research, three kinds of carbon fiber (CF) with lengths of 1, 3, and 25 mm were prepared for processing composite. The effect of submicron glass fiber addition (sGF) on mechanical properties of composites with different CF lengths was investigated and compared throughout static tests (i.e., bending, tensile, and impact), as well as the tension-tension fatigue test. The strengths of composites increased with the increase of CF length. However, there was a significant improvement when the fiber length changed from 1 to 3 mm. The mechanical performance of 3 and 25 mm was almost the same when having an equal volume fraction, except for the impact resistance. Comparing the static strengths when varying the sGF content, an improvement of bending strength was confirmed when sGF was added into 1 mm composite due to toughened matrix. However, when longer fiber was used and fiber concentration was high, mechanical properties of composite were almost dependent on the CF. Therefore, the modification effect of matrix due to sGF addition disappeared. In contrast to the static strengths, the fatigue durability of composites increased proportionally to the content of glass fiber in the matrix, regardless to CF length.

Woven Composites

Three-dimensional woven fabrics with excellent structural integrity are a very promising structure for multifunctional materials hybridized with various yarns. To systematically investigate mechanical properties and failure analysis of 3D-woven hybrid composites, copper wire/glass fiber composites with two hybrid structures, single-face copper wire (SF-CW) and double-face copper wire (DF-CW), were fabricated and tested. The SF-CW hybrid composites showed excellent tensile strength (1214 MPa) and bending strength (964 MP), which was greater than that of the DF-CW hybrid composites. Additionally, the compression strength and impact resistance of both composites exhibited comparable properties with traditional materials. Furthermore, all failure cross sections showed superior structural integrity and anti-delaminate properties, demonstrating that 3D-woven composites can be a good candidate platform by hybridization with various multifunctional yarns.

Sic Composites

SiC is a perfect reinforced material, characteristic of high hardness, high wear- and corrosion-resistant property, and low cost. SiC-reinforced iron-matrix composites show high wear resistance, high hardness, high inflexibility and high strength, with wide applications as superior wear-resistant and high temperature materials. This paper reported a heterogeneous precipitation method to coat SiC with copper particles. The vacuum hot-pressing method was used to sinter the Fe/SiC composites with Cu-coated SiC powders. The techniques of XRD and SEM were used to characterize the compositions and microstructures of the samples. The Archimedes method was used to test the density. The results showed that SiC and Cu were homogeneously mixed in the composite powders obtained by the heterogeneous deposition method, and that the composites with 5wt% of SiC (Cu) obtained at 950°C have a high relative density of 96%, a high hardness of 4121 MPa and a high bending strength of 646 MPa. The enhanced properties of Fe/SiC composites could result from the improved interfacial consistency by using Cu-coated SiC powders, which could inhibit some adverse interfacial reactions.

Interlaminar Shear

Phthalonitrile resins exhibit excellent thermostability and mechanical strength after curing. However, poor processability made them difficult to fabricate fiber-reinforced composites with desirable integrated performance. In this article, a novel mixed phthalonitrile resin was developed to be used as the matrix for glass fiber–reinforced laminates. Poly (aryl ether nitrile phthalazinone) oligomer end-capped by phthalonitrile units (PPEN-PN) was firstly designed and blended with bisphenol-based phthalonitrile monomers (BP-PN) (Figure 1), which were obtained according to the literature procedure. A novel mixed curing agent (zinc chloride and 4,4-diamine-diphenylsulfone) was also exploited to accelerate curing rate of the resins. Solubility tests, differential scanning calorimetry and rheological studies revealed that the mixed resins exhibited good processability with low processing viscosity. Thermal gravimetric analysis indicated that the cured resins were stable below 530 to approximately 570 °C in nitrogen atmosphere after low-cost curing procedure. In air, char yields of the resins were between 30 to approximately 40% when heated to 800 °C. The laminates reinforced by E-glass fiber cloth possessed a bending strength of 668 MPa with interlaminar shear strength of 84.6 MPa at room temperature. 50% of the strength and modulus was maintained when heated to 400 °C. Consequently, this type of laminates may be potential candidates for aerospace applications.

Albeit widely established in plastic and metal industry, additive manufacturing technologies are still a rare sight in the field of ceramic manufacturing. This is mainly due to the requirements for high performance ceramic parts, which no additive manufacturing process was able to meet to date.The Lithography-based Ceramic Manufacturing (LCM)-technology which enables the production of dense and precise ceramic parts by using a photocurable ceramic suspension that is hardened via a photolithographic process. This new technology not only provides very high accuracy, it also reaches high densities for the sintered parts. In the case of alumina a relative density of over 99.4 % and a 4-point-bending strength of almost 430 MPa were realized. Thus, the achievable properties are similar to conventional manufacturing methods, making the LCM-technology an interesting complement for the ceramic industry.
