Multilayer reinforcement fabrics are increasingly used for manufacturing structural polymer composites. In liquid molding processes, dry reinforcement fabrics are draped on a mold first, and infused with a liquid resin such as an epoxy in a subsequent manufacturing step. This presents major advantages in terms of operational flexibility and costs. However, draping multilayer reinforcement fabrics on complex mold geometries is challenging. Small radius mold corners constitute a major manufacturing challenge as they lead to variability in dry fabric positioning and resin-rich corners in polymer composite parts. Spring-back of fabrics bent over or into single curvature mold corners is a widespread industrial concern. However, contrary to draping over double-curvature surfaces, bending spring-back from convex or concave single-curvature corners has received very limited attention. No testing method is available. This paper quantifies reinforcement fabric bending spring-back. Single and multiple layer stacks were bent along three directions over convex and into concave 90° corners with five radii spanning 1.59 mm to 12.70 mm. In all cases, five replicated tests enabled variability quantification. Fabric stacks were also quantified using cantilevered bending tests for comparison purposes. Mold radius was found to affect the behavior to a larger extent than testing direction, number of layers or use of a binder.

The paper introduces a principle of iso-quantities for investigating the distribution of a number of fibers in a two-ply yarn cross-section in a regular grid. The main aim is to map the two-ply yarn inner structure and changes of this structure to various ply twists. So far, modifications of two-ply yarn in different ply twists have been explained only indirectly from a macroscopic point of view by observation of the process of two-ply yarn retraction. This paper applies cross-sections and the method of iso-quantities to find the causes of these macroscopic changes. The ratio of the twist coefficients of the twisted and single yarns αs/ αj was used to indicate the internal changes of the two-ply yarn. Using the iso-quantities method and the x–y difference curves of the fiber distribution in the two perpendicular directions of the cross-section, it was shown that counter-plying causes a change in the fiber distribution in the cross-section, resulting in the occurrence of negative values of the retraction, insignificant changes in the external geometry of the two-ply yarn, and a constant breaking strain behavior. These manifestations appear only up to the values of the ratio αs/ αj of 1.2 or less. After this limit, the extreme value of the x–y difference settles down, the retraction begins to take on positive values, and the breaking strain of the two-ply yarn begins to increase as the two-ply yarn twist increases.

The performance of braided fiber-reinforced composites is determined by the braided structure, so yarn spatial arrangement prediction is a crucial step in the manufacturing process of fiber-reinforced composites. This study aims to predict fabric on arbitrary mandrels based on the yarn interactions, especially for mandrels with flat surfaces. An interaction yarn deposition model is proposed to simulate the process of braiding arbitrary-shaped mandrels. A dynamic deposition model is established at the moment of deposition, and a quasi-static equilibrium equation is added to determine the spatial position of yarn interaction points. Post-processing of positional information is performed to obtain the yarn spatial arrangement on the mandrel’s surface. Experiments were conducted using Zhongfu Shenying 12K T700 carbon yarn and Yunlu Composite 176-carrier radial braiding equipment. The experimental results show that the actual fabric exhibits an S-shaped distribution on the flat surface of the mandrel, matching the predicted results of the model.

In the drafting process, the strength and distribution of the friction field determines the fiber movement state, affecting the yarn formation process and yarn properties directly. The bottom pin, as an important part in the drafting zone, forms an elastic friction field with the top pin through the apron, which has an important influence on yarn properties. This work is aiming to compare the different friction fields generated by two bottom pins and its mechanical effect on fibers, revealing the influence of the friction field on the quality of yarns with different counts. Theoretical and experimental results show that a larger and stronger friction field was formed by the smaller surface curvature and flatter transition level of bottom pins, imposing a positive effect on the yarn evenness and strength. The difference in evenness between yarns spun with the two types of pins vary from 4.3% to 9.8%, while the yarn spun with a flatter bottom pin has higher strength (maximum difference to 17.1%). This study on the influence of the friction field on yarn properties can clarify the adaptability of different bottom pins for the production of different yarn counts, showing great significance on the actual control of yarn properties and property improvement.

The flame-retardant performance of carbon fiber reinforced composites serves as a critical metric for structural stability. Nonetheless, the prevalent methodologies for improving the flame retardancy of composites struggle to reconcile the dual objectives of flame retardancy and mechanical robustness, due in part to the constraints imposed by the conventional additive-based approach on the material interface. This study introduced a novel method involving a glass fiber mat, which was augmented with a polyurethane-based treatment integrated with flame-retardant substances, in particular ammonium polyphosphate and nickel hydroxide. This fiber mat was strategically applied to the composite surface, conferring both flame retardancy and enhanced structural resilience. The structure performance and flame retardancy of composites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and the cone calorimeter test. Experimental comparisons with nontreated controls indicated that the innovative composites exhibited a reduction in total heat release and total smoke production by 13.7% and 18.8%, respectively. Concurrently, a notable enhancement in mechanical properties was observed, with increases of 20.9% and 23.1% for tensile and flexural strength. This well-balanced performance is attributable to the structure design, with toughened glass fiber mats to protect the composite surfaces from structural failure, and flame-retardant agent composition for combustion resistance and smoke suppression. Consequently, the proposed integrative flame-retardant structural design, enriched with specific flame-retardant treatments, offers a promising avenue for fabricating high-performance composite materials with potential utility in the aviation and aerospace sectors.

Cotton micronaire is an essential fiber quality attribute that characterizes both fiber maturity and fineness components. Micronaire and other attributes are measured on fiber lint routinely in laboratories under controlled environmental conditions following a well-established high-volume instrument protocol. In this study, the attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, characterizing fundamental group vibrations in fiber cellulose from 4000 to 400 cm−1, and using an attenuated total reflection device, was explored for fiber micronaire assessment, especially for seed cotton locule fibers that were mingled with nonlint materials, and varied in fiber maturity within a naturally variable sample. Partial least squares multivariate regression models and the algorithmic infrared maturity approach were developed and then applied to predict micronaire values of validation samples and independent seed cotton samples for comparison. Unlike partial least squares models that showed worse in the coefficient of determination, bias, and percentage of samples within the 95% agreement range for independent samples than for validation samples, the algorithmic infrared maturity approach indicated a similarity in the coefficient of determination, bias, and percentage of samples within the 95% agreement range between the validation samples and independent samples. In particular, the algorithmic infrared maturity approach avoided the need to re-calibrate the model with new samples. Therefore, the development of a robust and effective Fourier transform infrared technique combined with the infrared maturity approach for rapid laboratory micronaire assessment and distribution demonstrated a great potential for its extension to the early micronaire testing in remote/breeding locations, and also to regular cotton fibers, processed cotton yarns and fabrics.

The unfolding of fabric creases induced by humidity is an issue of the capillary forces driving the deformation of materials, related to the interactions of textiles with moisture. Most are about complex moisture transport dynamics in fibrous assemblies. However, the effect of humidity on the crease recovery course of fabric with multiscale structure is not clear. Therefore, the fabric crease unfolding over time in different humidities was explored. In this study, theoretical analysis based on Burger’s viscoelasticity model and experiments on the crease recovery were conducted. Then the evaluation indices, that is, the crease recovery ratio ([Formula: see text]) and the recovery gradient ratio ([Formula: see text]), which were obtained from fitting coefficients and constructed in the form of the theoretical equation, were established. They were then combined with the fabric porosity ( P) at yarn scale, to demonstrate the capillary forces driving the deformation of materials, that is, crease unfolding humidity-induced. The results show that the higher the [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] value, the greater capillary forces promoting the crease to recover under the same humidity changes. The smaller the P, the more easily the contacted structures move, and the crease recovers better. In conclusion, the deformations induced by capillary forces are studied in a form of a crease unfolding at a humidity change. The results obtained in this study lay a certain foundation for further research on the mechanism and theoretical model of the moisture on fabric crease recovery.

Complex processing parameters need to be adjusted for expected qualities in injection molding processing. Once the process is abnormal, it is essential to spend time and human work on fault diagnosis. In this study, we focus on fault diagnosis of injection molding processing parameters for polylactic acid/glass fiber composites. The injection molding processing parameters include the melt temperature, injection speed, packing pressure, packing time, and cooling time. The qualities include tensile strength, hardness, impact strength, and flexure strength. When processing parameters deviate from the optimal process condition, the multivariate statistical control chart monitors downgraded qualities. The machine is operated at the optimal process conditions to generate normal samples and the corresponding four qualities of data are chosen as the historical data. Hotelling’s T2 is used to calculate the upper control limit (UCL) from the historical data to detect abnormal samples. If the T2 value exceeds the UCL, the corresponding sample is considered abnormal. Then, the residuals of qualities for abnormal samples are obtained by a residual control chart. They are chosen as the feature values for the backpropagation neural network (BPNN) to identify the abnormal processing parameters. The experimental results proved that the BPNN can achieve a 100% recognition rate for single-factor abnormal samples. For the single-/double-factor mixture, the accuracy rate of double-factor classification can reach 97.44%. This proposed study has the advantage of high stability, being non-destructive, high precision, and low cost, and can be widely promoted in injection molding industries.

Bacterial poly-3-hydroxybutyrate is a thermoplastic biopolyester that is considered a potential alternative to traditional fossil-based plastics due to its rapid biodegradation performance in both soil and marine environments and its compostability. Due to problems in thermal and crystallization behaviors of the bacterial poly-3-hydroxybutyrate polymer, an improvement has been made in the cooling channel of the conventional fiber spinning process. Using an enhanced quench channel, named as a half tube on a conventional melt spinning line, melt spinning of the bacterial poly-3-hydroxybutyrate multifilament fibers is successfully carried out. The maximum crystallization temperature of polymers was taken into account while adjusting the quenching process. The study examined the impact of varying drawing ratios and the designed quenching apparatus on the thermal (differential scanning calorimetry), mechanical (tensile and drawing force tests), morphological, and crystal structure characteristics of fibers. The quenching apparatus has visibly created a homogeneous melt flow under the spinnerets. While it has a negative impact on fiber cross-sectional formation, raising the draw ratio greatly enhances mechanical properties.
