Abstract
In this work, the fracture mechanism of winding carbon-fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRPs) based on epoxy matrices reinforced by polysulfone film was investigated. Two types of polymer matrices were used: epoxy oligomer (EO) cured by iso-methyltetrahydrophthalic anhydride (iso-MTHPA), and EO-modified polysulfone (PSU) with active diluent furfuryl glycidyl ether (FGE) cured by iso-MTHPA. At the winding stage, the reinforcing film was placed in the middle layer of the CFRP. The fracture toughness GIR of the obtained CFRP was determined by the double-cantilever beam delamination method. Additionally, the effect of cyclic loading on the fracture toughness of CFRP reinforced with polysulfone film was investigated. It was shown that heterogeneous structures arising from the dissolution of the polysulfone film in the epoxy binder during the curing process increase the fracture toughness of CFRP from 0.5 kJ/m2 to 1.2 kJ/m2. Application of cyclic loads had little effect on the fracture toughness value. As a result of this study, it was revealed that the macrocrack propagates near the reinforcement layer along the diffusion zone, which has a phase organization of the type PSU matrix-EO dispersion.
期刊介绍:
Polymers (ISSN 2073-4360) is an international, open access journal of polymer science. It publishes research papers, short communications and review papers. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Polymers provides an interdisciplinary forum for publishing papers which advance the fields of (i) polymerization methods, (ii) theory, simulation, and modeling, (iii) understanding of new physical phenomena, (iv) advances in characterization techniques, and (v) harnessing of self-assembly and biological strategies for producing complex multifunctional structures.
